The Illinois native chose Ohio State after visiting the campus earlier in the month. This follows the recent commitment of Deng Ngor, another four-star recruit, both having visited the same weekend on September 4. Davis, standing at 6-1 and weighing 180 pounds, is a top-50 overall recruit in the 2027 class. He is currently ranked No. 43 overall in the 24/7 Sports Composite and No. 1 in Kansas. Davis has also garnered interest from teams such as Iowa, Creighton, Minnesota, and Michigan State. Prior to committing to Ohio State, he had visited Creighton and was set to see Iowa this weekend. With these two key signings, head coach Jake Diebler has secured significant talent for the future of Ohio State's basketball team.",
