Ricky Davis joined the Wolves in January 2006 as the key piece in a trade with the Boston Celtics, for Wally Szczerbiak and other players. Last year, Davis averaged 17.0 ppg, 3.9 rpg and a team-best 4.8 apg (eight in the NBA among non-point guards). He went for a season-high 42 points Apr. 15 at Golden State, and connected on 116 of his final 266 3-pt. attempts (43.6%).
Heading into his 10th season, Davis was the 21st overall pick by Cleveland in the 1998 NBA Draft after he spent one year at Iowa. Among the most durable players in the NBA, Davis logs heavy minutes, but never seems to tire.
Davis was a three-sport star in H.S., also playing baseball and football at North Davenport H.S. (Iowa). His full name is Tyree Ricardo Davis, and he has participated in the 2006 and 2007 U.S. Bank/Timberwolves Summer Caravan across the state of Minnesota. He is also among the NBA's most active players in the community. DAVIS' NUMBERS
