NEW ORLEANS – Dante Exum said it was “something I’ve done a thousand times.”
Except that this time, in training camp at a routine practice, when he went up for a dunk, it went haywire.
Exum, the Mavericks’ guard who hasn’t yet played this season because of the injury suffered on that dunk try that required right wrist surgery, spoke for the first time about what he went through when it happened and the arduous journey it’s been to get back to the basketball court.
Which could be soon, by the way.
