The Utah Jazz season began in earnest Monday, as team brass, coaches and players convened on Vivint Smart Home Arena for Media Day.
Perhaps the most specific insight we got from Jazz Media Day that wasn’t previously known was regarding the continued health and progression of Dante Exum, Utah’s oft-injured former fifth overall pick. Exum suffered a torn patellar tendon near the end of last season, the latest in a string of maladies in his career. Unfortunately, Monday brought a bit more vagueness and no real concrete answers on his status headed into training camp.
For Jazz fans hoping to see Exum turn a new leaf in this department, it’s not the greatest start. Multiple sources had pegged Exum as “ahead of schedule” for much of the summer, and the Jazz were excited about his progress – whether he suffered a specific setback or otherwise, this kind of vague update isn’t too promising. At the same time, it’s good to see the Jazz taking an extremely conservative approach with Exum given his past issues.
If not for his health concerns last year , Mitchell could easily have been an All-Star and warranted All-NBA consideration. Getting started on the right foot here, literally and figuratively, is meaningful.There’s clear excitement in the air here surrounding several of Utah’s summer additions, but new point guard Mike Conley appears to be in his own special category.
