Dante Exum
TEAM: Australia
Position: PG/SG
We’ve heard the craze around Exum, but most of NBA fans have no idea who, or what, Exum really is. Heck, most NBA scouts don’t know that yet, either.
Which is exactly why you’re going to want to tune in when Exum is on the television during the FIBA World Cup. As the 19-year-old enters his first major competition of any kind, it’s going to be interesting to see how Exum compares to some of the other great guards from around the world.
And as the No. 5 overall pick by the Utah Jazz in the 2014 NBA Draft, he’ll have some steep expectations.
