Video: Dante Exum’s Aussie Football Drop-Kick For Full-Court Swish

Yesterday, some Australian Football Players stopped by the Zions Bank Basketball Center where the Utah Jazz were practicing to get some face time with Aussie import and NBA rookie Dante Exum.

Exum is even further from the basket than Manu Ginobili was when he kicked in a basketball and avoided the Bruce Bowen block during training camp.

Which is more impressive: Manu or Dante?
