The 2025 NBA Draft has concluded, leaving some prospects to pursue opportunities as undrafted free agents. Among them is RJ Davis, a standout guard from North Carolina who signed an Exhibit 10 deal with the Los Angeles Lakers. Despite going undrafted, his collegiate accolades—including being an ACC Player of the Year and holding records for three-pointers and double-digit scoring games—underscore his potential. However, at 23 years old and only 6-foot tall, Davis faces challenges ahead, particularly in terms of defense at the professional level.

His college stats show he averaged 15.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per game over five years, reflecting his scoring ability. For Davis to secure a spot on the Lakers, he must develop his defensive skills and demonstrate playmaking reliability. This signing could mark the start of a promising, albeit challenging, NBA journey.
