Shake Milton<\/span><\/span><\/strong> has suffered a fracture to a bone in his left hand<\/strong> and will require surgery, Mozzart Sport<\/strong> reports. The injury occurred in Podgorica<\/strong> during Partizan\u2019s game against Studentski Centar, as per Mozzart Sport<\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Milton was injured during a physical play in which he got caught holding an opponent\u2019s jersey, leading to a serious hand injury. Medical examinations confirmed the fracture, which must be treated surgically.<\/p>\n

The American guard is expected to be sidelined for at least three months<\/strong>, a timeline that effectively brings his season to an end<\/strong>. Since joining Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, Milton has struggled to stay healthy, having already missed nearly a month earlier in the season due to another injury.<\/p>\n

This latest setback represents a major blow for Partizan, who lose one of their most important offseason signings. With Milton likely unavailable for the remainder of the campaign, questions now arise over whether the club will return to the market<\/strong> in search of a new playmaker.<\/p>\n

In the EuroLeague<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, Milton appeared in 13 games<\/strong>, starting six of them, and averaged 6.7 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 3.1 assists<\/strong> in 21 minutes per game. He scored in double figures four times, with his best EuroLeague performance coming against Fenerbah\u00e7e<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, posting 13 points and four assists<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In the ABA League<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, he played just six games<\/strong>, averaging 10.3 points and 2.2 assists<\/strong>. His standout performance came against FMP<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, when he erupted for 26 points, four rebounds, and five assists<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
