In summer league and preseason, Dante Exum looked like a different player. That seems like a hyperbole but when you have time go and watch some highlights of Dante Exum. He looks different. It’s not just that he bulked up and started to look like he fit his frame. It’s not that he finally didn’t look to be sporting a jr. high mustache. It’s that he looked like he belonged.
In Summer League, Exum was penetrating the paint and not panicking while the play developed. He attacked the rim without fear, but even better, he was drawing fouls and finishing around the rim.
