Why Bob Davies ranks #140 in Basketball
Bob Davies ranks 140th among Basketball athletes on GOAT Rank and 811th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 81.1 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 90, Longevity 66, Honours 84, Statistics 84. Those categories are normalised against the full Basketball reference universe of 402 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1945–1955 with 9 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1951, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes nba titles 1, mvp awards 1, all-star selections 4, career points per game 13.7.
Immediately ahead sits Margo Dydek on 81.2, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Rebecca Lobo on 81.1. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
