Dante Exum is healthy and playing 5 on 5s after injuring his knee causing him to miss last season. He played pretty bad his rookie year despite getting playing time rookies would kill for. He says he's been working on his shot and shot off the dribble alot since he wasn't able to run any physical drills. I think he can turn it around he has talent but not in utah. Utah already has Trey Burke, Raul Neto, Shevlin Mack a newly aquired George Hill and they just drafted two more pgs last Thursday so a potential trade could be on the horizon seeing as the Jazz will not have all 7 pgs opening night. I'd love to see him in philly playing alongside ben simmons, they have a history together both born in Melbourne Australia they grew up together both their fathers played in the Australian basketball league and they developed a friendly rivalry at 7 years old. Maybe Noel for Exum filler/pick?

Too bad they got George Hill, just less playing time for Exum.

I never rated this dude or saw all the potential everyone else did.

What exactly is so special about him? I've constantly said I'd like to be proved wrong since he is an Aussie, but I don't see it.

Is he going to play summer league? I'd like him to have a massive breakout in that. Even though summer league doesn't mean much.

Tall pg with explosive quickness and a devolping body he wasn't ready rookie year but was given the opportunity to learn first hand. He's definitely a work in progress I didn't like how he shot the ball and took alot of difficult shots but he had alot of time to work on the shot and is a little older and smarter it also helped him alot being able to watch games from the sidelines and pick the game apart from a different perspective.
