Jayare Davis continues to take
the nation by storm and ascend the national ranking boards and make his claim
as the cream of the crop – Davis’ recent performance at the Buckeye Prep
Showcase did nothing to change the reputation he has built on his Summer tour
to Cp3 Camp (Top 5 performer), Middle School All-American Game Selection and
Starter, Basketball Spotlight Future Phenom Camp (Top 5 performer).
Every set of eye’s that see Davis
falls in love and many in attendance in Ohio stated Davis was the best in the
gym regardless of the class. Davis who
has not been formality trained like many of the kids across the nation as built
is his skill set the old-school way by playing the game at parks and
playgrounds against grown men and the best talent he can find. Does the old school way work – well watch
Davis compete once and your question will be answered.
What you are seeing is a weight
baring frame that is being prepared to finish through contact along with the
speed to out runs guards and the bounce to out jump the big men. Extremely
fluid in his handling of the rock; he is a baseline to baseline threat - he can rebound the ball on defensive and take
the ball coast to coast as he is suited for a transition game as a finisher.
A finesse player with an emerging
power game – he has the versatility and the dexterity to score with either hand
inside the paint by way of post moves, flash, and an impressive floater package
that he uses as he relentlessly attacks the paint.
Very unselfish and a an adept
passer who sees the court and works habitually out of the triple threat position. The jumper looks Durant-ish or Horry-ish with
a smooth high release point, he can work out to the 3-point stripe and is
consistent in the middle game from the wing and baseline areas out to 17' feet.
As you can see from the video
below Davis will finish with a slam dunk when the opportunity presents itself.
The combination of a hungry scorer, bounce and a soft touch gives him a
consistent face up game and makes him a hard matchup for anyone. Is he one of the best now? – without question
they key caveat to this answer is that he has the potential to be the best when
it’s all said and done. Davis is special
the nation can simply sit back and enjoy the ride as he is know where near
where he will be and that’s the craziest part of all.
