Davis reaches 1,000 points for his career

By Rex Kirts

The stunning moves, soft shooting touch, ball-stealing deftness and sharp passing make South senior point guard Dee Davis one of the best basketball players the city has ever had.
As a sophomore he was voted the Most Valuable Player in the state championship win over Fort Wayne Snider.
Now he's got over 1,000 points for his career, with most of his senior season left to play.
Davis went over the significant point total Friday with 25 points in the Panthers' 71-65 victory against Bedford North Lawrence. He had 19 in the season opener last week at New Albany.
Davis entered the season with 976 points, so heading into Saturday's game against Evansville Harrison his career total climbed to 1,020.
He scored 276 points as a freshman at North, 340 his sophomore year at South and 360 with the Panthers last year. His average increased from 12.5 as a freshman to 13.1 as a sophomore and 15.7 last year.
