Jazz's Dante Exum: Back to full strength

Exum (knee) said Wednesday that he's fully recovered from the torn ACL that sidelined him for the 2015-16 season.

Analysis:

It's been roughly a year since Exum underwent reconstruction surgery on his left knee, but the point guard looks like he'll be ready to go for the start of training camp in the fall. Exum, who made the tough call to sit out of the 2016 Summer Olympics to aid his recovery, looks like he'll be eased back into the mix as he prepares for his second NBA season. The Jazz acquired George Hill in June to serve as their starting point guard, allowing Exum to occupy a bench role to begin the year.
