Rocky signs brother of Heat's Davis
BILLINGS (AP) - E.B. Davis, the younger brother of Miami Heat player Ricky Davis, has signed a letter of intent to play basketball at Rocky Mountain College, coach Bill Dreikosen said.
“He will be one of the best athletes we've had in our program,” Dreikosen said.
The 6-foot-4 Davis is transferring from Texas-San Antonio, and will have three seasons of eligibility remaining.
“His quickness and size, I think, will make him a kid that's tough to handle at this level,” Dreikosen said.
Davis' father, Tyree, played for Rocky for two seasons in the early 1970s, earning All-America honors after the 1972-73 season.
E.B. Davis played in 18 games for the Roadrunners last season, averaging about four minutes per game and scoring a total of 17 points and grabbing five rebounds.
“He wants to be in a situation where he can play more of a productive role,” Dreikosen said.
Tyree Davis said attending Rocky and playing basketball for the Battlin' Bears “was one of the best experiences of my life.”
E.B. Davis averaged 19.6 points and 7.9 rebounds per game as a senior at Lawrence Academy in Groton, Mass., helping his team to a 28-3 record.
Ricky Davis was drafted by the Charlotte Hornets in 1998 and has averaged 14.3 points per game during his NBA career. He played in all 82 games for the Heat this past season and has started in half the 664 NBA games he's played in.
