Dragons can and will bask @ surface temperatures of 130 and higher. If you're truly not exceeding 115 degrees on that hotspot, your little one will be just fine.
I would worry more about the choice of substrate, and the large cage dimensions to "grow" into. You may want to section off half that tank until dragon hits the 12-13" range and place the driftwood closer to the basking rock.
Also, pickup a digital thermometer and place on the wall near the basking spot. It's helpful and important to know the ambient temperatures on the warm end and ALSO the relative humidity contained in the tank.
