Dante Exum Latest News
Bench role against Sacramento
Exum will come off the bench during Wednesday's game against the Kings, Christian Clark of The Athletic reports. Exum was a starter for the regular-season finale against the Grizzlies but will be in the second unit against the Kings in the Play-In Tournament on Wednesday. The veteran guard came off the bench seven times for Dallas during the 2024-25 regular season and averaged 7.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game while shooting 48.5 percent from the floor and 41.2 percent from deep.
Back in starting lineup
Exum is in the Mavericks' starting lineup against the Grizzlies on Sunday, Mike Curtis of The Dallas Morning News reports. Exum returned from a 12-game absence Friday against the Raptors and finished with six points, three assists and one rebound over 14 minutes. He'll be in the Mavs' starting five Sunday for the first time since March 14, when he fractured his left hand.
Returns from hand surgery
Exum (hand) tallied six points (2-4 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three assists and one rebound across 14 minutes in Friday's 124-102 win over the Raptors. Exum checked into the contest to begin the second quarter, marking his first appearance since he fractured his left hand March 14 in a loss to the Rockets. The veteran wing shot the ball well from downtown but committed three turnovers during his time on the court. Though he may continue to hold down a regular spot in the rotation in Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Grizzlies and any subsequent playoff contests, Exum will likely struggle to crack 20 minutes in most games.
Cleared to play against Toronto
Exum (hand) is available for Friday's game against the Raptors. Exum was available to return Wednesday against the Lakers after an 11-game absence due to a fracture in his left hand, and he's been given the green light to suit up Friday. After the All-Star break and before sustaining the injury March 14, Exum had averaged 8.0 points, 2.4 assists, 1.8 rebounds and 0.7 steals over 19.8 minutes per game.
Iffy for Friday
Exum (hand) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Raptors. Exum was deemed available for Dallas' game against the Lakers on Wednesday after missing the team's previous 11 outings due to a fractured left hand. However, Exum did not receive any playing time, which could also happen if he's upgraded to available against Toronto.
Available, not guaranteed to play
Head coach Jason Kidd called Exum "very limited" for Wednesday's game against the Lakers and did not guarantee he would see the court, Eddie Sefko of the Mavericks' official site reports. Exum had missed 11 straight games due to a left hand fracture, and while he's been upgraded to available on the injury report, Kidd didn't commit to playing Exum against the Lakers on Wednesday. Even if he does take the floor, don't expect Exum to see significant run. Instead, Dallas will have to rely on Spencer Dinwiddie, Brandon Williams and Max Christie off the bench.
Good to go against LAL
Exum (hand) is available for Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Tim Cato of AllDLLS.com reports. Exum has been sidelined for the Mavericks' last 11 games after fracturing his left hand against the Rockets on March 14, but he has progressed enough in his recovery to be given the green light to return Wednesday. In the 15 games prior to his injury (including 10 starts), Exum averaged 9.7 points, 3.1 assists and 1.7 rebounds over 20.1 minutes per contest.
Iffy for Wednesday
Exum (hand) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Lakers. Exum was diagnosed with a left-hand fracture and was set to be re-evaluated four weeks from March 15, but he has now received a questionable tag for Wednesday's contest. While it's unclear if the 29-year-old guard will be able to suit up before the end of the regular season, he appears to be progressing well in his recovery.
Diagnosed with hand fracture
The Mavericks announced Saturday that Exum has been diagnosed with a left hand fracture and will be re-evaluated in four weeks. Exum suffered his injury during Friday's game against the Rockets and will likely miss the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign. With Dallas currently sitting in 10th place in the Western Conference, the Mavericks will need to go on a deep run in the playoffs without Kyrie Irving (knee) and potentially Anthony Davis (adductor) in order to give Exum a chance of returning to action.
