Lucas: UNC Basketball Mailbag

Posted Jan 20, 2009
Ed Davis has been terrific as a freshman. Nationally, he's probably not getting enough attention. He's still tied for the team lead in rebounding at 7.8 boards per game despite playing significantly less minutes than Tyler Hansbrough, with whom he shares the lead. Davis's rebounds-per-minute compare favorably with some of Carolina's all-time best rebounders, including Antawn Jamison and Sam Perkins. That's rare company for a freshman. (Tar Heel Blue)
