Exum Tears His ACL

:( It's too bad. He wasn't great last year, but definitely has some upside and this is a huge setback. I had Utah slotted in at the 8 seed, but now it's wide open if they're starting Trey Burke.

Definitely sucks. Utah is one legit offensive guard away from competing with the best in the west in a couple years.

Exum could have been traded due to his potential and this is a big hit to his value.

Serves the Jazz right for trusting an Australian.

Uncalled for maybe...

I think this could be the end for Exum, D and quickness were the only thing he was ok at his rookie year and will definitely lose a step or two once he returns.

What a disaster. That's 3 of top 5 picks from that year's draft hampered by injury. Embiid, then Jabari, now Exum. At least Jabari is expected to be fully healthy soon I guess.

Also Aaron Gorson (4th pick) played only 47 games becuase he was injured...

Well, why not? ACL injuries are still in vogue, after all.

Sucks to see.

Well played. :lol:

In all seriousness, it reminds me of Rose in 2012; a routine landing that was actually a bad one.

Irony... This guy from Slovenia Blazic (number 9) who guards him, plays for my favourite team. When we played against our rivals in final series, he injured their 2 best players in 2 games :lol:
