Washington Wizards: 5 options for pick No. 52 in 2017 NBA Draft

4. Dwayne Bacon, SF, Florida State

Forward Dwayne Bacon saw success in his two seasons with the Florida State Seminoles. He is a player who can continue to improve, especially behind the three-point line, and serves as a reasonable option in this year’s NBA Draft.

Bacon averaged 17.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.0 steals per game in his sophomore season last year. He shot 33.3 percent from three-point range and 45.2 percent from the floor.

With his 6’5″, 202-pound frame, Bacon is a player with an NBA-ready body and a plethora of developing skills to go along with it. If drafted by the Washington Wizards, Bacon serves a dual purpose.

The addition of Bacon would lessen the blow if Bojan Bogdanovic or Otto Porter go elsewhere in free agency, and he’d bolster a Wizards bench in need of instant offense either way.

Bacon put up solid numbers in the Seminoles’ run to the NCAA Tournament this past March. He scored 25 points and grabbed nine rebounds while dishing out two assists and snagging two steals in their opening round victory over Florida Gulf Coast.

He scored 20 points and had five rebounds and three assists in the following tournament game against Xavier, although the Seminoles lost that game, 91-66.

In the same two-game span, Bacon went 0-for-8 from three. He isn’t the strongest three-point shooter, but with guys like Kelly Oubre and Bradley Beal still on the roster, he still has time to develop.
