You can’t score if you don’t shoot.

A transplant from Trinidad and Tobago, Davyeon landed in KC Heartland on a basketball scholarship at Benedictine College. With the world at his fingertips after graduation, he chose to stay in Kansas City to grow his life and career.

Following, Davyeon kept making the right moves, which later led to the founding of a now globally recognized sports-tech startup, ShotTracker. The sensor-based analytical software tracks real-time basketball statistics and has been adapted into coaching strategies at major universities, helping players around the nation improve their game.
