Dwayne Bacon was on the rise his Senior Year, he went from being on the bottom half of the ESPN 100 to being a projected 1 & done 1st round pick. But I feel that they scouts are hyping him up a bit too much. I saw him play several times for Oak Hill and during a couple all star games. He’s extremely confident on both ends but he also has a huge ego and only gives full effort half the time. He can also have horrible body language at times. He has the offensive game and all the physical tools to be worthy of the player he’s labeled as, but right now I feel that he has so much to improve on. Even if he has a disappointing freshman season at FSU, I’m sure he will still declare based of his ego and the fact that he’s two years older than most of the players in his class.

 I love Bake. Hes tough and he will be an NBA 2 guard. He has to improve his defense at FSU and his shot selection and body language. But I think he is gonna be a star. Him and Xavier Rathan Mayes are gonna be special next season (scoring wise)

 The potential is definitely there, it is apparent that offense comes easy to him (great scoring instincts) but he just settles for way too many long jumpers right now. Hopefully that’s improved next season

I think Bacon could be very good but I doubt he will ever live up to his potential due to his attitude and shot selection. I would rather have Allonzo Trier.

 he has late first round talent because he’s physical, good size for a 2, has some ball skills and he’s naturally aggressive. i think mocks have him in there right now bc he’s old as sht for his class and he’ll be counted on to score for FSU. i wouldnt pencil him in quite yet though. leonard hamilton’s system has a tendency to make players look worse than they really are.

 Totally agree with the poor body language part and the gives "full effort half the time". I watched his game vs Simmons and Montverde and it just didn’t seem that he wanted to win. He moves sloppy and is slways a stand-still on defense. I got hyped with his mixtapes and the fact that he’s a 6’6 2-guard but hope his coach at Florida St. will change his mentality. 

I’m hoping for the next Allan Houston (at least) not the next Nick Young.
