The Dallas Mavericks re-signed Dante Exum to a one-year deal late into the offseason, and with exactly one week before the regular season begins, this is looking like the worst move of the offseason as Dallas enters year one of the Cooper Flagg era.
On Saturday, before the Mavericks played the Charlotte Hornets at home in their second preseason game, Jason Kidd revealed that Exum was dealing with "sore knee irritation" in his right knee, which would cause him to miss some time. Mavericks fans had been curious about what was going on with Exum, as he hadn't been practicing due to an undisclosed reason, and Kidd finally cleared the air last weekend.
