Dante Exum handling the hoopla

Posted Nov 1, 2013
As the NBA season kicked off this week, on the other side of the planet in the basketball training hall at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra is one of the hottest properties for next year's draft. Dante Exum is taking the hype, hoopla and expectation of a potential multimillion dollar contract in his stride. This time next year, the athletic point guard could be trading textbooks for a spot on an NBA roster. He's yet to decide whether to throw himself in the mix or delay his arrival in favour of a stint with a US college. (Canberra Times)
