Davis finished Sunday's 104-96 victory over the Raptors with three points (1-1 FG, 1-4 FT) and five rebounds in seven minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Davis has been on the fringes of Cleveland's rotation recently, but he saw a slight uptick in playing time while generating some production on the boards Sunday. Jarrett Allen (finger/quadriceps) exited the game in the second quarter and is expected to be sidelined indefinitely, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Davis log slightly more consistent playing time in the frontcourt going forward. Each of Davis' appearances with double-digit minutes this season have come when Allen has been unavailable, and he's averaged 7.8 rebounds per game across his five outings in which he's played at least 10 minutes.

Davis logged two points (0-2 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two assists across 17 minutes during Monday's 95-93 victory over the Knicks.
EDGE Analysis
Davis drew the start for Jarrett Allen (illness) and served honorably for Cleveland -- logged a solid plus-12 in the box score. Allen is likely to return when the Cavaliers welcome the Bucks on Wednesday.

Davis will start at center Monday against the Knicks, Joe Gabriele of Cavs.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Jarrett Allen (illness) and Lauri Markkanen (ankle) both sidelined, Davis will move into the lineup at center alongside Evan Mobley. The veteran has appeared in only one game this month, and this will be his first start since all the way back on Nov. 18 against Golden State. Davis finished that game with seven points, 14 rebounds and two blocks in 28 minutes.

Davis (COVID-19 protocols) is available for Thursday's game against the Wizards.
EDGE Analysis
Davis spent just over a week in the league's health and safety protocols but will return to the court Thursday. Even with Jarrett Allen (conditioning) unavailable, Davis could have his minutes monitored Thursday.

Davis has entered the league's health and safety protocols, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran big man is the eighth Cavs player to land in protocols, leaving the team woefully shorthanded for Wednesday's game at Boston. The Cavs already made the trip to Boston and are planning to add at least one more replacement player, so all indications at this point are that the game will go on as scheduled.

Davis will come off the bench Monday against the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Davis started the last two games but will make his way back to the bench with Jarrett Allen (illness) rejoining the lineup. Davis could still operate as Cleveland's reserve center with Evan Mobley (elbow) sidelined.

Davis totaled seven points (3-3 FG, 1-2 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 28 minutes during Thursday's 104-89 loss to Golden State.
EDGE Analysis
Davis made his presence known on the glass, leading Cleveland in rebounding in just his fifth game of the 2021 campaign. He's now started in back-to-back matchups due to a thin frontcourt. Davis won't wow any fantasy managers with his scoring totals, but he could be a serviceable option at center until Lauri Markkanen (COVID-19), Jarrett Allen (illness) and Evan Mobley (elbow) return to the floor.

Davis totaled six points (3-6 FG), 11 rebounds, one block and one steal across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 109-99 loss to the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
With Evan Mobley (elbow) out for at least two weeks and Jarrett Allen (illness) out for a second straight game, Davis drew his first start of the year and played well. He's in line to potentially start again Thursday, as Allen remains sidelined.

Davis posted six points (3-6 FG), 11 rebounds , one steal and one block across 24 minutes in Wednesday's 109-99 loss to the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
The journeyman was thrust into a prominent role with injuries to the majority of Cleveland's frontcourt and played admirably, recording his most single-game rebounds since the 2018-19 campaign. Expect Davis to once again hover around 20-plus minutes with Lauri Markkanen (COVID-19) and Jarrett Allen (illness) uncertain for Thursday.
