La Salle • Class of 2028 • Cincinnati-area boys basketball • 2026–27


La Salle's returning-player discussion includes more than its senior interior scorer. C.J. Davis earned second-team All-GCL South recognition as a sophomore, putting his junior-year development firmly on the local watchlist.


The player and the opportunity


The league's postseason list identifies Davis as a 6-foot-4 sophomore in 2025–26. That is a dated roster description, but the all-league honor supplies a clear reason to follow the next stage of his varsity career. Within a changing team, a returning player can become more valuable through quicker recognition and a better understanding of where the next advantage is likely to appear.


There is also a useful dated observation about the returning combination. In a January 2026 evaluation, Prep Hoops analyst Michael Roth described Davis and Scales working effectively together in screen-and-roll situations. That report gives their next season a specific connection to follow, rather than treating each returning player as a separate scoring total.

Wolfe Sports outlook


Watch the connections between Davis, Shamari Scales and the rest of La Salle's next rotation. When attention goes inside, does the perimeter help turn that attention into a useful catch? When the ball starts outside, does the offense preserve a second option? Davis has already earned league recognition; his junior winter offers a chance to make that contribution more complete.
