Jake Davis is Illinois’ low-drama, high-value floor-spacer who keeps winning possessions
In the 2025-26 season, Jake Davis gave Illinois a steady wing/forward option: 5.4 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.5 made threes per game while shooting 40.6% from deep, with his calling card being efficient spacing and low-mistake play. He’s the kind of glue guy coaches love—6-foot-6, physically sturdy, comfortable in Brad Underwood’s system, and praised for elite offensive efficiency and reliability. If your team needs a mature, knockdown shooter who won’t hijack touches and can quietly swing games, Davis fits the bill.
