As we continue our NBA Preview series, we take a look at 30 burning questions for all 30 NBA teams
Utah Jazz
Burning Question: How far away is Dante Exum from legitimately contributing to this team on a night-to-night basis?

Many scouts labeled him the next Kobe Bryant, as both showcased a few of the same characteristics as young players. Though, Exum is probably not in a position in which he can consistently contribute at a high level on a night in and night out basis. At least, that’s what early indications are. We’ll find out for sure once he suits up in a Jazz uniform.
