BALLER MOVE: Target Around 130 Overall
CURRENT ADP: 145
ANALYSIS: Milton’s season was a story of two halves as he filled in for an injured Ben Simmons much of the year. As a starter he posted a more than respectable 12.5 points and 3.8 assists a game, while that dropped to a meager 4.9 points and 0.9 assists in game in which he did not start.

Go Premium, Win More!Simmons is returning, but Philly also traded swingman Josh Richardson and brought in Doc Rivers to coach. Rivers has already made the statement that Milton should see an increased role on the team and that will be along with Simmons on the court. Furthermore, Simmons has never been a picture of health and Milton would be the obvious candidate to fill his role. If Milton can carve out a Patrick Beverly type role, he could certainly be a nice value return late in drafts.
All in all, Milton's finished 2020 averaging a respectable 9-2-2 line per game, not bad considering his low 20.1 mpg of playing time in 40 games through the year. Those numbers are not going to make you go after Milton like a mad man, but if only for his shooting efficiency you should consider the combo-guard very seriously. Milton shot a crazy .484/.430/.785 splits, making him one of only 12 guard-eligible players to sustain those marks over the year (min. 800 minutes). The leader among those in that group: Dame Lillard. Not bad company, that one.
