Exum Leaves Monday's Game Against Boston Celtics   

Monday, July 6

The Jazz announced Exum sprained his left ankle in a 100-82 victory over the Boston Celtics. The 2014 first-round pick will have it re-evaluated Tuesday.    

Exum finished the game with 20 points on 5-of-11 shooting, five rebounds and five assists. You can view a replay of when the injury occurred below:
