As the arc on RJ Davis' shot improves, so do his numbers

Posted Jan 10, 2025
R.J. Davis continues working to match last season's form: "I’ve been watching a lot of film of my jump shots," Davis said. "Big (Sean) May sent me clips of my shot from this year just so I can critique myself and when shots are going in, when shots are not. I felt like the beginning of the year I was rushing my shot rather than just shooting the basketball." (Tar Heel Illustrated)
