Danté Milligan was a steady, physical frontcourt piece at UMass
In the 2007-08 season, Danté Milligan gave Massachusetts a reliable 6-foot-9, 215-pound inside presence who played in all 36 games and started 21, averaging 9.0 points and 5.4 rebounds in 18.8 minutes per game. He was valuable because he could score efficiently around the rim, rebound in traffic, and bring veteran toughness to a team that reached the NIT Championship game. The fit: a coach looking for a dependable, low-drama frontcourt worker who impacts winning without needing the ball a ton.
