North Carolina legends Vince Carter and the late Walter Davis are among 14 finalists for the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, the hall announced Friday. Davis died on Nov. 2, 2023, of natural causes. The Pineville native was 69. In 1974 as a freshman, Davis made one of the most famous shots in UNC history, a 25-foot shot as the buzzer against Duke.
