Prep basketball: Windward’s Davey Harris makes a statement in his debut

Windward’s Davey Harris finally scored his first points in high school basketball Monday night after waiting two seasons to recover from a knee injury. He scored 21 points in a 66-51 win over Knight in Chaminade.

At 6-foot-4, Harris is no ordinary junior. Harris had 10 scholarship offers from his summer performances alone, where recruiters saw a hint of his potential, coach DJ Jay said. He’s the younger brother of former Windward star JJ Harris, a standout at Loyola Marymount.

Harris said he feels good and looks forward to being 100% later this season. Amari Laran scored 19 points for Knight.
