Professional career

After helping lead South Carolina to the NCAA Championship, Davis opted to enter the 2017 WNBA Draft.[1] She was drafted 10th overall by the Dallas Wings.

In January 2018, Davis joined Turkish team Galatasaray.

On August 10, 2018, Davis signed with the Perth Lynx for the 2018–19 WNBL season.[2] However, due to suffering with vertigo, she was unable to travel to Perth and thus the Lynx released Davis from her contract on September 4.[3]

Personal life

Davis is the daughter of former NBA player Antonio Davis. Davis has a twin brother, A. J., who played basketball at UCF and plays professionally overseas.

gollark: There's the "wash your hands" campaigns and apparently the government's trying to deal with the economic impact later, but we're doing horribly on testing (better than the US...) and seemingly not actually doing much to stop the spread preemptively.

gollark: Apparently hospitals could test for coronavirus cheaply with stuff they generally already had available, but the FDA only allowed the CDC's tests to be used. But those had a broken component. Hospitals also had replacements for that broken bit, but the way the tests were licensed didn't allow them to be replaced. So they just limited testing to those returning from China, so they have no idea of spread.
