Number 5
Dante Exum – Foreign
Dante Exum is the most unknown player in the entire draft. He burst onto the scene in the Nike Hoop Summit and then played very well in the FIBA Under-19 Championships. Some scouts say that if Exum was playing for a college team here in the states that he would be the number 1 pick in June but since that’s not the case and teams haven’t had that much of a chance to see him play it would be too much of a gamble to take him first overall. He should still be a top 5 pick unless teams are really that nervous about taken a guy that’s unknown. I’ve read scouts saying he’s the closest comparison to Michael Jordan since he was in the league and if that’s the case some team very well might take a shot at this kid and see what he can do.
