Posted Nov 8, 2023
Walter Davis, a UNC basketball legend and the uncle of North Carolina coach Hubert Davis, died at the age of 69 on Thursday due to natural causes. Walter was an Olympic gold medalist and six-time NBA All-Star. But, above all else, he is remembered by his family, friends, and former teammates for his kind demeanor. That’s just who "Sweet D" was.
