Exum Contract Option

Shad said:
I wouldn't offer Exum over 5 mil a year, and even that's pushing it. You can actually get players that can play for over that

But he had 1 great playoff game and is only 24 or something.

How much longer until "Can the Dante Exum Experiment Please End" thread shows up? Give him the QO and that's it. It's already an overpay.

First time in my life I have noticed something about the players' off season outings.. Exum hanging with Ben Simmons (and Kendall) while Donovan 'bumps into' Tinashe in a LA nightclub lolz.

Bring on the Draft and FA. I know it was a goodish Game1 of the Finals, but I have just about tuned out.
 
Mitchell mentions Ricky and Dante when he said they make up one of the best young and promising backcourts in the entire league. If Mitchell appreciates him, I appreciate him.

If Exum just plays great perimeter D, he is an asset in today's game. And you just don't let young assets walk.

3 years $26 million. Year 3 is a $10 million team option. So he makes $8 this year and next.

Exum's next contract could potentially be the jazz's version of Curry and the Warriors. Even though I have major doubts about Exums game.

I wouldn't even compare those 2 contracts. Curry's injuries were fluke ankle injuries, Exum has had 2 blown out knees and a torn (?) shoulder. Completely different and more severe injuries than Curry.

I mean at least Brandon Roy and Oden (who were super injury prone) had some great seasons and stats to back it up. We can't ever say that about Exum

for who.......sorry Dante Exum isn't a hidden unknown player in this day of athletic 3 and D players.

Yep, he's not an unknown. It's known he can't shoot the 3. He's a career 30.6% shooter from long distance. So spare me the 3 and d and that he's so sought after until the dude plays decent minutes for a full season and hits more than 34% from 3.
 
Here's a positive with Dante. His TS% went from 45.7% as a rookie to 52.1% to 56.6%. If he can play all summer and camp, maybe we could see a smaller jump to about 58.5%.
 
The two guys in this draft whose measurements Exum’s most closely resemble are Jacob Evans and Alize Johnson.

If his body continues to develop, I think we could see Exum playing some 3, at least on defense. His switchability here is huge and perhaps an underrated factor in deciding whether to re-sign him or not.
 
X has some value for the Jazz and I do like him, but his next contract will be about his potential rather than current results. As such, it's hard to gauge his value beyond the QO, particulary in this kind of cap starved offseason. The Jazz have to solidify that back court and I'm not entirely sure Exum is a long term answer there. Rubio showed what consistent production does there for this team after he turned it on after the break.
