If you take a look at the leaderboard of this season's top scorers in college basketball, you'll see a lot of upperclassmen—names that, even at the mid-major level, likely evoke a degree of familiarity: Chris Clemons, Jermaine Marrow, Justin Wright-Foreman, Carsen Edwards, Mike Daum.
But the player sitting at No. 2 with 27.4 points per game—Detroit Mercy's Antoine Davis—is only a freshman, one with just 10 games to his college career. And so you might be asking: Who’s that?
It’s not an unreasonable question. A homeschooled guard from Houston, Davis wasn’t heavily recruited. Part of that, though, was by design.
