Dante Exum had his ups and downs this season, but it's always good to have a little perspective on a young player like Dante. Here's one of those perspectives.
Great rookie season from my boy @daanteee 2 years ago we won a National Champ in HS and now you're in the NBA #Aussie pic.twitter.com/Rzw9pNddLO

Yes, two years ago, Dante Exum had just won a National Championship ... for his HIGH SCHOOL. Out of all the rookies this year, Dante made the biggest leap. If he can make another leap like he did this year we'll be joking around that people like this guy actually think Jordan Clarkson is better than Dante Exum.
Dante Exum > Clarkson — In what world? LMAO http://t.co/egJn4qy8Rl

Sidenote:
I found this video while I was searching for news on Alec Burks. Someone was asking Alec Burks to share the video. He didn't, but I will. BECAUSE I AM FULL OF MERCY. Some 9 year old who has some serious skill and is ADORABLE. WATCH THE ADORBS.
We've talked about how Gordon Hayward and Derrick Favors are having kids at the same time. I presume it's with each other so that it has Gordon Hayward's handle and jump shooting mixed with Derrick Favors' post moves and defensive prowess. But we have ignored the other consequence of Gordon Hayward's baby making. Butler's 2034 starting lineup. Yes, folks. Be scared for 2034. Be scared.
Terry Johnson, Brandon Crone, Emerson Kampen, Gordon Hayward and Rotnei Clarke all having kids this summer. Butler's 2034 starting 5 is set

Steve Kyler of Basketball Insiders believes Rudy Gobert should be the Defensive Player of the Year. RUDY! RUDY! RUDY!
Rudy Gobert hard to pass... after becoming a starter Jazz turned a corner and their defense went through the roof. https://t.co/46QaT4nYeJ

Additionally, Basketball Insiders has the Jazz selecting Devin Booker of Kentucky with their pick. Need some catching up on Devin Booker? So do I. Let's refresh together.
