A Case For The Naismith Hall Of Fame: Walter Davis

Posted Apr 28, 2018
Incredibly, Walter Davis didn’t make any All-America teams while at UNC, though he was All-ACC a couple of times. He averaged 15, 7 points per contest in 119 games as a Tar Heel, and in four seasons never averaged less than 14.3 or more than 16.6. He was the model of consistency. He was a key component to UNC’s 1977 run to the national title game. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
