Everyone was excited by the work Exum did in the summer. He played in one summer league game ( I know, it's summer league) against Marcus Smart and had 20 points, 5 reb, 5 assists and then landed on someone's ankle and then when he went to play for Australia we were devastated by his ACL injury...
Burks will be huge for us off the bench, I believe he was 2nd in ppg from the bench when he went down (Paul Pierce flagrantly fouled him, which caused his leg to break). He won't be back for another 2 weeks at least I believe.
