Dante Exum not being recruited by UNC
Posted Jul 6, 2013
Australian star Dante Exum is leaning towards coming to college instead of entering the 2014 NBA Draft and right now Indiana appears to be tops on his list. Cecil Exum, Dante’s father, played at UNC and won an NCAA championship in 1982, but the Tar Heels are not recruiting his son. “At the moment I’m not being pursued by them at all,” Dante said in April. “They’re a great school and I love that my mom and dad both went to North Carolina but if they don’t want me I’m just going to look somewhere that’s going to fit me the best.”
