Former La Crosse Central star and Wisconsin Badgers standout Johnny Davis is coming home. Once the face of Wisconsin men’s basketball and one of the most decorated players in program history, Davis now finds himself back in his home state, fighting to revive his professional career.
The Wisconsin Herd, the G League affiliate of the Milwaukee Bucks franchise, acquired Davis in a trade with the Westchester Knicks that sent the returning player rights to Diego Bernard and Jalen Lewis, along with two 2026 G League draft picks, to complete the deal.
It’s a fresh start for the 23-year-old guard, who’s spent the past couple of seasons searching for the same success he once had with the Badgers.
