Over the past month, Exum has started moving hard and cutting on the court, coming off screens, finding spots on the floor to shoot.

Over the next month, he will be cleared to do what he called "unpredicted movement," which includes going against a defender. The next step, at some still-undetermined time, he'll be allowed to absorb contact, which is to say, he'll be able to play freely.

In the meantime, he's changed his shot.

"The biggest thing was making sure I didn't have two hands on the ball as I'm releasing," he said. "That was a big issue with my shot last year. The shot's been straighter, for the most part."

We saw Dante in the summer league really starting to understand that he could get where he wanted to go on the floor," he said. "It was almost as though he was discovering himself. He was getting more and more comfortable dictating what he wanted to do. I saw a big jump. He knows that's out there for him. Over time, he'll get all that back. That's a big thing for our team."

He's farther along than I thought and theirs nothing negative about his rehabilitation .

I'm most excited about him changing his shot. It always looked so mechanical. I think Exum will be special!! I can't wait for next year already. Going to be a loooooooong offseason.

Not as long as last years, if all goes as planned.

Well I'm more excited for next year. Will seem like an eternity. Lol

Will Exum play in summer league? I wonder.

 

[Mission Accomplished]

They better have taken this time and worked on his ball handles. Remember he had some real limitations on his ability to go both ways.

I really wonder if he'll regress though. He was so scared to go inside last year. Then he finally starts to and tears his acl.

I wonder what the Balance Doctors say?? I think we'll see Dante in 2018, after he becomes a gymnast, per team regulations.

The balance test gave us Trey Lyles, don't question it.

I agree Thee Jazz Fan. I think Exum is gonna be special too. I love his elite length at PG spot and his elite Quickness. I believe in him. I believe in his makeup. It's gonna be a long off season my friend.

Was going to post something along these lines but this pretty much nailed it.
