Dante Exum has to adjust to more time playing off the ball, but he is just happy to be playing consistently again after missing all of last season rehabilitating from a torn left anterior cruciate ligament.Its a great feeling, Exum told ESPN after Utah Jazzs come-from-behind win against the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Sunday.[Being on the bench] is no place for a player-to-be. Im just happy to be out there, taking it one game at a time and continuing to get better.[Im] definitely back into the rhythm of playing. Its just getting that consistency - not having played for a while to going to back-to-backs and five games in seven nights. Its just about adjusting to that.Its not just consistency that Exum is adjusting to, though. The Australian, who was drafted by the Jazz essentially straight out of high school, had played as a point guard for the majority of his rookie season in 2014-15, but through the first six games of the current season he has played the role of an off-the-ball guard more than that of the traditional point guard -- with most of those latter minutes being assigned to George Hill and Shelvin Mack.Im always used to playing the one [and] its always an adjustment changing, Exum said.Ive adjusted well and Ive just got to continue to concentrate on what to do. Hopefully just get better from there.Exum is averaging 6.7 points and 2.7 rebounds per game through the early stages of the season, but theres always room for improvement. As the season progresses, he feels like eventually hell be moved back to his most natural playing position.[Jazz coach Quinn Snyder] hasnt talked to me about that [but] Im a versatile guy; being able to play both positions, I think we get a bit more stable in our rotations, he said. I think Ill get back into the one more.Snyder says nothing is guaranteed minutes-wise for any of the Jazz players.Roles are going to expand and contract based on how guys play, Snyder said pregame.Its really that simple.Exum, still only 21, had been pegged as the Jazzs point guard of the future, but the team acquired veteran Hill in the off-season -- a move that could have, understandably, given Exum the impression that a starting spot was still a way off.Exum, however, views the move as a positive for his development.I think its always good that [the Jazz] have patience in me, he said.Its always hard coming back from an injury and expected to perform straight away. Its good that I can find my feet first and hopefully I get to that point [of starting].Im watching [Hill] every game and seeing what he does. During practice hes helping me with certain decisions, and doing everything to help me.The Jazz are scheduled to play the 76ers in Philadelphia on Monday -- a contest Exum would have been looking forward to even more had his good friend Ben Simmons been able to play.Exum has been in regular contact with Simmons, saying he has urged him not to rush anything in his rehab as he looks to come back from a Jones fracture.The biggest thing was about for him doing [rehab] so when he gets back on the court, hes ready to go, Exum said.I told him the biggest thing is not to rush it as well. I know he wants to get out there and play, but he needs to continue to stay in rehab because you dont want it to be an injury that keeps hanging around.Joe Thomas Jersey .
