Charlotte head coach James Borrego had some great things to say about Bacon after the game.
"Dwayne is such a presence out there on both sides. I'm seeing a ton of confidence from him... This is a guy that can get to the rim, shoot the three-ball, match up defensively with DeRozan, Gay... I just love his spirit. His confidence is oozing." - Coach Borrego
