R.J. Davis

R.J. Davis represents the part of basketball I find most human: the grind just below the spotlight. After serving as a floor leader for the storied North Carolina Tar Heels, he is now battling in the NBA G League with the South Bay Lakers, the toughest, least glamorous step toward the main stage. Born in 2001 in White Plains, New York, he still has plenty of runway. I am drawn to hungry young players willing to do the unglamorous work, and I will be rooting for him to break through.
