SB Nation theorized that they're holding Exum out in case he needs to be used as trade bait there's a better chance of him passing his physical .
This is where Im at.

Jazz have announced that Exum will be out until after the all star break. Also, Sefelosha and Neto will be reevaluated in one week.
You'll have more time to yourself, crocodiles, kangaroos, and Vegimite, what more do you want?Yawwnn
Come on guys, nobody is going to trade for Exum withat that stupid contract we gave him this past offseason.SB Nation theorized that they're holding Exum out in case he needs to be used as trade bait there's a better chance of him passing his physical .
Call me crazy, but I still think Exum is a slightly positive asset. The guy has proven to be a good defender and able scorer at times.
Not too long ago we would have begged for a buy low high potential guy like Exum. We won't get a great asset for him, but he still has value somewhere.

When we were starting Arroyo and those dark PG days, if somebody offered us a 23 year old 6'6" PG who plays good defense and has a few 20+ point games on his resume, I think we would have been intrigued. We would have all said - "yeah he gets injured a lot but if he can stay healthy what an improvement he would be."I wouldn't have. I mean who are you talking about? Someone like elfrid Payton? Stauskas? Bender? I would never beg for a guy like that.

Healthy Exum would not be improvement over 2003-2004 Arroyo.We would have all said - "yeah he gets injured a lot but if he can stay healthy what an improvement he would be."

His contract is pretty team friendlyCome on guys, nobody is going to trade for Exum withat that stupid contract we gave him this past offseason.

Great choice to keep him out until after the all-star break. Its only 6 more games and will give him plenty of time to be 100%. Injured ligaments take 6 weeks to fully recover. There is not reason not to let him be all the way healed before bringing him back. We dont need him right now and he still has a very high ceiling. Good thing we have him on a great team friendly contract.
This is Exums 3rd injury in 5 years in the NBA. They have been bad timing but outside of the ACL not that big of a deal. ACL injuries suck but are very common for athletes. Every player rolls their ankle. Some play through it if they are not major and the team needs them back.
Left the playoffs with a hamstring... so 4 at least... the amount of injuries isn't an issue... the time missed is. If you watch him his somewhat awkward movements and falls combined with the games missed makes calling him injury prone really fair. It may prove to be false... and this one isn't super serious imo... just a bad look. I think we continue to take the long term view on Dante and I think we are committed to the guy... for better or worse. Keeping him out longer is smart if we are retaining him long-term.
