By many metrics, Dwayne Bacon is one of the very worst players in the NBA this season. You’d have to search far and wide to find an advanced stat that likes him, and when you did find it, it would turn out that it used “Last name resemblence to names of food items” as a…

Hornets fans seem to think that this guy is not actually good, but I don’t know where they got that idea, because when I watch this video I see nothing but buckets. It’s like he never misses. Falsehoods peddled by fake news sites like basketball-reference.com and nba.com may indicate that he misses shots. Lies. The…

Dwayne Bacon ended last season on something of a high note, scoring in double-figures semi-consistently including a trifecta of 20-burgers. I will not debase myself so far as to use the adjective “sizzling” to describe his performances, but he was definitely giving Hornets fans some hope for the future.

Dwayne Bacon is one of those players whose just been forgotten about this season. I think there was some hype for him from his college days, maybe I’m wrong, but if there was, it’s gone now. He was such a low-volume “scorer” in his rookie year that it was hard for me to scrounge together…
