Career

Virginia Union University

In college, Davis played for four seasons (from 1985 to 1989), in three of them as a starter, and averaged 22.3 points per game and 11.9 rebounds per game in his senior season.

Miami Heat

As a rookie (not drafted, started his NBA career as free agent) during the 1989–90 NBA season, Davis played in 63 games for the Heat—a team in its second season of existence in the NBA. In 1990–91, Davis played in fewer games (55) but had a higher scoring and rebounding average than he did in the previous season.

Dallas Mavericks

On August 6, 1991, Davis signed with the Mavericks and in his first season with the team, he ranked 15th among all NBA players that season when he grabbed 9.9 rebounds per game.

After another good season with the Mavericks in 1992–93, his next three seasons with the team were plagued with injuries and his production slipped heavily.

Washington Wizards

After a year away from the NBA, Davis resurfaced with the Washington Wizards in the 1997–98 season. It was with the Wizards that he gained the distinction of being the first player to score a basket at Washington, D.C.'s MCI Center.^{[citation needed]}

Denver Nuggets

After two continuous seasons with the Wizards, and another full season out of the NBA, Davis signed with the Nuggets for the 2000–01 season and played in just 21 games.

Personal life

Terry's son, Ed, was ranked second in the class of 2008 by at least one recruiting service^[1] and played college basketball at the University of North Carolina^[2] as a sophomore and was drafted 13th overall in the 2010 NBA draft by the Toronto Raptors.
