Reviewing Jared Dudley's up-and-down season with the Wizards

Jared Dudley was brought in for his veteran presence and to plug the hole left behind by the departed Paul Pierce. On offense, Dudley was exactly the stretch-4 that the Wizards needed. He's a heady player, would draw his man outside of the paint, and would force defenses to find him in transition, otherwise he'd burn them for a three-pointer.

Dudley averaged 7.9 points per game this season and shot 42 percent from three-point range; his second best shooting percentage from three-point range in his career. But just like the Wizards, Dudley's individual season had its ups and downs.
