Justin Davis stood on USC’s practice field one day this week, flicking his wrist and holding it out above his chest.
“It's kind of like an NBA shooter,” Davis was saying, by way of explaining his recent surge in production.
NBA shooters, he implied, sometimes settle into a rhythm the more shots they take. It is, he said, like being a running back.
“The more touches on the ball you get, the more comfortable you get,” he said, adding that it also helps you get “more in tune with the game.”
USC has fed Davis the ball recently and he has caught fire.
