LAS VEGAS – The Mavericks fortified their backcourt depth on Friday with the official signing of Dante Exum.
It’s been a strange basketball path for Exum, who was taken fifth overall in the 2014 draft but had his NBA career sidetracked by a knee injury before his second season.
The last two years he played in Europe and he averaged just over 13 points in 38 games last season while helping Partizan NIL Belgrade to the Adriatic League title.
Below is the full announcement from the Mavericks:
