Davis in a boot

By Jake Trotter

OU hoops guard Cade Davis is currently wearing a boot due to a stress fracture in his foot.

But Davis should be fine in time.

And the injury hasn’t kept him from working on his shooting, even against the advice of coach Jeff Capel.

Recently, Capel saw Davis shooting in the gym despite the injury.

Capel asked Davis to check with the doctors to see if that was OK.

The training staff said Davis shouldn’t be running around shooting, but that he could work on his free throws.

During Monday’s Tip In dinner/end-of-year banquet, Davis relayed this news to Capel at the podium after receiving the most improved player award.

Davis, however, also said that he didn’t need to work on free throws.

Capel jokingly agreed.

Davis made 23 of 23 free throws last season.
