Shimane Susanoo Magic big man Jeral Davis, whose non-selection for the Western Conference All-Star team was a stunning omission, is having another splendid season for coach Zeljko Pavlicevic's team.
The product of little-known Talladega State in Alabama, is well on his way to his third consecutive shot-blocking title.
The 216-cm center is averaging a league-best 3.6 blocked shots and 14.5 points in 26 games, helping Shimane take a 17-9 record into the second half of the bj-league season after Sunday's All-Star Game at Ariake Colosseum, where his teammate Michael Parker secured his second All-Star MVP Award.
