Ever remember your first major interest? In my case, it was cars. When I was five years old, I was identifying every car on the road. When I was seven years old, I began a habit of going to auto shows every year.
I knew I was passionate about it.
By the time I turned eleven, I got into basketball cards. I started putting the cards in numerical order. I started memorizing statistics. I would buy a Beckett’s magazine to find the find the value of the cards. That’s when I learned about the draft.
Speaking about the draft, Dante Exum clearly has one main passion.
Dante Exum at Staples to take in Lakers Spurs

This is the second time he’s been found at a Laker game. Like a lot of games this season, it was a relative blow out early. The Lakers kept it close into the 4th quarter, but the Spurs played lock-down defense, and came away with the win. Still, that doesn’t stop Dante from showing up at Laker games.
Maybe Dante Exum is studying the NBA game. Maybe he’s a loyal fan to the Los Angeles Lakers. Maybe he’s trying to find how he can help the team. Maybe, there’s purple and gold in his blood, and he’s found a new home. Maybe, he’ll end up wearing the purple and gold after the 2014 draft. Maybe, he wants to be a Laker legend.
