Jackson Davis
Boy, can this kid go! Jackson Davis is a 6’8 athletic forward from Louisville, Kentucky. The southernmost northern city in the United States. He’s a rising 9th grader at a 4A school, Lafeyette High. “A 4A school means there are a lot of students”, said his father Jonathon. Davis is a dance major and a honor student in the performance art program. No wonder he has light feet running the court. Speaking of bball, Leigh Klien of the 5 Star Camp brought his teachings to Davis hometown. The camp had kids from 8 states and overseas. Davis earned the ‘Most Promising Prospect’ award. He even runs a mile in 5:30. ” The last time I did that was a Jr at the University of Kentucky“, said Mr. Davis.
Coach Kerreim Memminger is at the Adidas Super 64 in Los Vegas and has Davis on his 16U Shooting Stars team. Davis headed to Vegas, the day after 5 Star concluded in Lousiville. Though it’s two events within a ten day span, Jonathan says ” its one long trip”. Jackson’s grandfather, John Davis, played for Chicago Bulls in the late 60’s. His cousin, Arnett Moltrie, is a 6’11 center at the University of Texas El Paso. He’s projected to be a first round draft pick next year. Davis who is on top of his game was a top 20 All-Star at the Fab Frosh camp. Davis was also at the Adidas ‘It takes 5’ 16U tournament in Charlotte. If Davis continues to persevere, John Lucas predicts that he’ll be a “one and done”.
