And you said teams don't give up on terrible players after 1 season. What's your point? If bennett was undrafted he wouldnt have made it past the 10 day contract.

Humor me... What exactly is Exum's elite talent?

I said teams dont give up on talented players regardless of draft position. Bennett isnt talented.
I never said he was elite. Good lord do you just pretend to read post before you hit reply? Exum has talent, read the thread, we have been discussing it.

Is what you said. And anthony bennett has as much talent as exum does. His game certainly didnt translate to the nba.

I think if Dante Exum were a shooting guard, he'd be playing in Europe or D-League (permanently). But since he is uniquely big and long (and has speed) for a PG, teams will be more patient with their development. Anthony Bennett is a bad example because he was small for a power forward and there was nothing athletically or physically overwhelming about him that made him valuable to any NBA team. He was just a flat out terrible pick by the Cavs, biggest bust for a #1 pick in my lifetime.

Exum is a pg that cant dribble, cant shoot unless set and wide open, and even though hes big, cant finish very well and doesnt see the ft line much. His speed has gone unused and unnoticed because he can barely dribble, and hes been pretty average defensively this year. He has the tools to be good someday. Lots of players have the tools and never put it together though.

Every player in the nba has talent. Many of them are out of the league in 4 or less years.
