Former Georgia Tech player Kaela Davis has given her verbal pledge to South Carolina, per multiple sources, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Two weeks ago, Davis made headway when she made her announcement to transfer from Georgia Tech. And from the very beginning, people linked her and the Gamecocks. With the addition of the 6-foot-2 guard, Staley now has an elite perimeter wing with unlimited shooting range.
