I’m leaving tomorrow ” tar heels tackle is acquired by Detroit tigers”$88.9 million deal..
You should know that RJ Davis has done this before.
Not score 36 points. That’s his career high, of course, the total he put up in Monday night’s 85-64 win over Wake Forest. He’s never done that before.
The rest of this, though, felt familiar to him. Even when he hit the 30-point mark with nine minutes left in the game, he knew that feeling. Breaking the 30 barrier came while being defended by Hunter Sallis, a good player who had a very difficult assignment.
Sitting on 28 points, Davis got the ball near midcourt in the middle of the floor. Took a couple of dribbles to his left. Then crossed over and went hard to his right, by which time Sallis was already reeling backwards, on his heels, and off balance.
But hold on a second. Davis hesitated just a second and it looked like he might fire a three-pointer. The old RJ probably takes that shot. Not senior year RJ. Senior year RJ realizes his defender is on ice.
So he jabs hard back to his left, using some traffic created by Armando Bacot. Now he’s inside the three-point line. Maybe a pull-up?
