Davis featured in SI’s ‘Faces’
Mullen’s Christian Davis is in the latest edition of Sports Illustrated.
The Mustangs’ senior sharpshooter is listed in the popular magazine’s Faces in the Crowd section that recognizes outstanding feats by amateurs in a variety of sports and activities.
Davis was honored for scoring 55 points against Chatfield in the Mullen Christmas Classic on Dec. 22. He actually scored 51 points away from the basket as his total included only two free throws and one layup. Everything else was from the perimeter, including 15 3-pointers, one shy of the Colorado record.
Mullen won the game 91-58 as Davis also scored more than half of his team’s points.
He was shown the magazine among teammates in the locker room after his team’s 77-62 victory over Cherry Creek in Greenwood Village on Saturday night.
“It’s pretty cool,” he said of being in SI, “but the best part is all the support I’ve gotten from teammates. I really appreciate it. It shows they were excited about it and it’s so genuine.”
Said junior teammate Isaac Ondekane: “It’s amazing seeing one of my friends in there. He’s like a brother to me.”
