Lakers' recently cut guard on verge of leaving NBA

The Los Angeles Lakers have cut multiple guards lately as they’ve reshaped their roster.

One of the departed backcourt players is now eying a move to Europe.

Shake Milton is “in advanced talks” with Partizan Belgrade, according to BasketNews.

This would be Milton’s first time playing overseas.

He has spent seven seasons in the NBA and played for six teams: the 76ers, Timberwolves, Pistons, Knicks, Nets and Lakers.

The Lakers waived Milton on July 20, right before his $3 million contract became guaranteed for the upcoming season.

L.A. has used the space created by cutting Milton and Jordan Goodwin to sign Marcus Smart. Goodwin was claimed off waivers by the Suns.

Milton has averaged 8.1 points per game in his NBA career.

Partizan Belgrade competes continentally in the EuroLeague, the second-best basketball league in the world behind the NBA.
