Davis, who can operate offense and play off the ball, is best known for his crafty playmaking and high IQ.
He's a thorough rim attacker with a knack for creating separation off the bounce.
Beyond his ability to knife his way into the teeth of the defense and finish in acrobatic fashion, and ambidextrously, Davis is able to play the angles and finish through contact.
