Dante Exum

The Wizards waived Dante Exum.

Fantasy Impact

Exum did not appear in a game this season. He is set to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Dante Exum has been traded to the Washington Wizards as part of a blockbuster deal that saw Anthony Davis and several other Mavericks traded for a host of players and picks from the Wizards, notably Kris Middleton and two firsts rounder picks.

Fantasy Impact

Exum has been out since November with a season-ending knee surgery. He won’t contribute this season and is scheduled to be a free agent this offseason, so he is likely a money and contract dump for Dallas more than anything.

The Mavericks announced Thursday that Dante Exum requires a follow-up surgery to address complications stemming from an offseason procedure on his right knee. Consequently, the veteran guard will miss the remainder of the season. He is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this coming summer.

Fantasy Impact

Exum's absence cements the current rotation in the Dallas backcourt. With Kyrie Irving also unavailable due to a knee injury, D'Angelo Russell and Brandon Williams are expected to continue sharing the minutes at point guard.

Dante Exum (knee) will be out again for Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks.

Fantasy Impact

Exum is going to be sidelined for yet another game on Wednesday, which shouldn't come as much of a surprise, given that the team still doesn't have a set timetable for his recovery. Dallas' rotation won't change at all with him continuing to be absent.

Dante Exum (knee) is still out for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Fantasy Impact

It should come as no surprise at all that Exum will be sidelined for another game on Sunday, as there is still no clear timetable for his recovery at this point. Dallas' backcourt should remain relatively consistent with how it has been throughout the first chunk of the season.
