Projected Draft Range: 2nd Round to Undrafted

Pros:

Solid scorer off the dribble
Decent shooter
Decent playmaker
Decent rebounder for his size
Adequate defender
Solid athlete

Cons:

Struggled with his three-point shot in his first two seasons
Can tend to over-dribble, which can lead to turnovers
Can play too wildly on offense
Can gamble a bit too much defensively
Can struggle against length and athleticism
Undersized for his position

Summary:

Kendric Davis is an agile, skilled playmaker that had a good junior season with SMU last year.  He has shown an improved outside shot, and he can quickly get to the hoop to score and get assists.  Recently, he has declared his intention to transfer to Memphis. He’ll need to show that he can consistently play well against taller players, but if so, he may have what it takes to be a reliable role player in the NBA.
