He may be unknown to most NBA fans, but Israeli guard Shawn Dawson is impressing as a member of the Washington Wizards' summer league team.
On Tuesday, the 22-year-old guard scored nine points in 16 minutes in an 87-85 win over the Brooklyn Nets, and it appears his solid play during the Las Vegas summer league will take his dream of playing in the NBA one step closer.
According to J. Michael of CSN Mid-Atlantic, Dawson's play is likely to earn him an invite to the Wizards' training camp.
"It seems likely that he'd accept unless he receives a better offer elsewhere," Michael wrote.
