Rory Davis
position: Power Forward
age: 20
height: 6'10"
weight: 235 lbs
Current Team: Wake Forest
Prospect Grades:
A- C- D+ B- C A
Strengths:
An absolute nightmare in the post. Davis will absolute crown his opponents using his mix of grace, finesse and athleticism.
Davis is perhaps the most polished offensive big man to ever enter the draft, averaging an insane 31.2 ppg average at Wake Forest. However, the rest of his numbers were somewhat underwhelming:
31.2 ppg, 7.2 rpg, 0.8 apg, 1.2 bpg, 0.5 spg
Davis is essentially known for his incredible offensive prowess, but the rest of his game is pretty average.
On the defensive end, you cannot accuse him of being lazy. He blocks the occasional shot and is a solid post defender.
He is also pretty fast for a big man, but not fast enough to play small forward because his jumper, while excellent, does not extend beyond 18 feet.
Weaknesses:
Davis's main weakness is that he is not an effective rebounder. He tries to get position, but his timing is always off. Although, he certainly does throw down the occasional pretty put-back dunk.
Davis also has poor court vision and seldom tries to get his teammates involved. He is a black hole on offense - luckily, he is a killer in that realm.
Davis needs to work on his range, but he should succeed with or without it.
Notes:
Anyone who drafts Davis will get a lean, mean scoring machine and for that reason, he will contend for the top spot in the draft.
