What became the news of the day in the morning turned official at night, as Partizan Belgrade officially announced the arrival of Shake Milton to the team.
The former NBA playmaker, who has played 399 games in the league, joined on a two-year deal.

Spending time with both the Los Angeles Lakers and Brooklyn Nets in the 2024-25 season, he put up 5.3 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 1.7 assists per game.
Previously in his NBA career, Shake Milton has also played for the Philadelphia 76ers, the Minnesota Timberwolves, and the New York Knicks.
This isn’t Partizan Belgrade’s first move on the market, as Zeljko Obradovic‘s team has already added both Jabari Parker, from Barcelona, and Dylan Osetkowski, from Unicaja.
