RJ Davis' Scoring Binge Marking History, But There's More to His Run

Posted Dec 15, 2023
With 26 points in an 87-76 loss to No. 5 Connecticut, R.J. Davis has totaled 23 or more points in five consecutive contests, and 26 or more in the last four. He is the fifth Tar Heel ever to score 26 or more points in four straight games and the first to do so in 53 years when legendary forward Charlie Scott incredibly did it 12 consecutive games in 1970.
