Shay Davis gives Western Illinois a spark off the bench, with shooting upside and proven scoring pop
In the 2023-24 season, Shay Davis appeared in 19 games for Western Illinois and averaged 4.0 points while hitting 85.7% from the free-throw line, with a season-best 22-point outburst against Hannibal-LaGrange and a 12-point showing vs. UTSA to open the year. His calling card is perimeter scoring with confidence, and his backstory matters: he arrived after starting all 35 games at Ranger CC, where he averaged 15.1 points and shot 42% from three, so the upside is real even if consistency has been the swing skill.
