This two-part video series from the Herald-Sun on Australian point guard Dante Exum does a nice job of breaking down his current situation and the choice facing him in the coming months.

Exum is projected as a top-five pick in the 2014 NBA Draft, and it is expected that he will announce his plans to enter the draft sometime in the coming months. He and his family are currently meeting with NBA agents.

At the same time, Exum has said he plans to take visits to five schools — Oregon, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, and North Carolina — although no dates have been set.

Exum also told FoxSports that he plans to compete for Australia in international competition — potentially including the Olympics.
