Injured Jazz guard Dante Exum cleared for non-contact practice drills

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — It’s unclear of when injured Utah Jazz guard Dante Exum will be returning to the lineup, but the Aussie has been ever present recently.

Exum has been getting up shots ahead of games and has now been cleared for non-contact practice drills in a one-on-one setting.

After Wednesday’s shootaround at Sacramento’s Golden 1 Center, Jazz assistant and player development coach Lamar Skeeter put Exum through a series of half-court and full-court layup drills, where the Aussie looked comfortable.

His shooting form certainly doesn’t seem broken like the recent viral video that surfaced of Philadelphia’s top draft pick Markelle Fultz, who is also recovering from a shoulder injury.
