Year one in NBA Summer League was a struggle for then-rookie Johny Davis, but year two he has shown he is becoming more and more comfortable with the NBA game.
Wizards fans are hoping for a similar trajectory to what Badger fans saw from Davis at Wisconsin, where the La Crosse native took a leap from being a bench player as a freshman to one of the best players in the country as a sophomore.
The early returns from NBA Summer League have been solid, as Davis has gone for 31 points over his first two games in Las Vegas and looked the part on the defensive end. The chances will be there for Davis on a young Wizards team, and he will need to capitalize come the regular season.
