SMU will have Malik Milton back in uniform next season

Southern Methodist Mustangs sophomore guard Malik 'Shake' Milton announced he would return to school for his junior season, per Jon Rothstein of FanRag Sports.

What It Means:

With a stacked draft class, especially at point guard, Milton was wise to return to school for another year to try and build his draft stock. His return will help maintain some stability for the Mustangs. The point guard was ranked 59th in the Draft Express top-100 prospects list and was a late-second-round pick at best this year.

Milton averaged 13.0 points, 4.1 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.3 steals and 2.3 three-pointers per game while shooting 42.3 percent from beyond the arc last season.
