Looks like Davis has officially declared for the draft and says he plans to hire an agent. I have not heard anything about who the leading candidates are but would be very surprised if he does sign with PTA. It is interesting to note they have revamped their website and while they still have a place holder for a clients page (http://www.ptasportsmanagement.com/page.php?id=5), they have currently chosen not to publish it.

My friends saw him and Larry Drew in a McDonalds last night in Raleigh. Said they seemed like cool guys but were both on something. This kid should not be a lottery pick IMO, no leadership skills, not very strong, but a very gifted athlete and shows those NBA scouts potential, or basically the only thing these guys look at anymore. The kid should stay at least one more year to prove that his “potential” can actually show unlike past UNC lottery picks like Brandon Wright or say Marvin Williams. It’s so nice to see UNC at the bottom of the ACC! GO PACK!

If I was Ed Davis I would have signed with an agent as well. We all know he is leaving for the NBA he has a broken wrist and North Carolina is not going to make the tournament so why not? So he get kicked out of school that is not going to stop a NBA team from drafting him.

I have never heard of an “advisor” listing a player as a client on his website. It’s another story if their site was hacked.

Is it possible that they served as “advisors” when he tested the waters last spring and they neglected to take it down? I also so Darren’s tweet about the agency is claiming their site was hacked. But my question is, does anybody believe that a projected top 5 NBA pick would sign with an agency this unknown?

Looks like PTA might have heard some footsteps because the Ed Davis picture is no longer listed on the website under clients. Good move Darren taking a screen shot of that.
