CHARLOTTE - Jacoby Davis' family is moving, and it might change the balance of power in Mecklenburg County high school basketball.
Davis, a 6-foot junior guard, is transferring from Vance to West Charlotte, where the two-time all-conference star will play with Wake Forest-bound guard J.T. Terrell, a 6-3 senior who transferred from Burlington Cummings this year. Terrell, a top 100 national recruit, moved to Charlotte to live with his father, James "Trigger" Terrell, a former 49er.
