Davis is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Warriors due to a left shoulder contusion, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Davis ended with 19 points (7-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-8 FT), 10 rebounds, six assists, two blocks and two steals in 39 minutes during Monday's 117-114 loss to the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
Davis didn't have his best scoring performance, as he failed to reach the 20-point mark for the second straight game, but at least he managed to extend his double-double streak to seven contests. Fantasy managers would expect a bounce-back effort from Davis sooner rather than later, but he continues to find ways to produce even when his shot isn't falling. Over that seven-game stretch with double-doubles, Davis is averaging 25.9 points, 13.1 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 3.1 blocks per game, so fantasy managers shouldn't be overly concerned if he has a couple of subpar scoring performances from time to time.

Davis (elbow) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Pistons, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis was able to play through a left elbow contusion in Saturday's 103-99 win over the Kings, and he finished with 10 points, 15 rebounds, five assists and three blocks over 37 minutes. If Davis is unable to play Monday, that would give Christian Koloko a chance to make his first start of the 2024-25 regular season.

Davis (elbow) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Kings, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis briefly left Thursday's game against Sacramento with what was initially reported as a left shoulder injury. He managed to return and finished with 21 points, 20 rebounds, four assists, six blocks and three steals over 35 minutes in the win. Davis has now been diagnosed with a left elbow contusion, and while he's iffy to play Saturday, his ability to return to Thursday's game indicates that the injury isn't severe enough for him to be ruled out. Since and including Dec. 1, Davis has averaged 25.6 points, 12.1 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 2.4 blocks and 1.4 steals over 35.1 minutes per game.

Davis contributed 21 points (7-20 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 7-9 FT), 20 rebounds, four assists, six blocks and three steals over 35 minutes during Thursday's 113-100 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Although Davis (shoulder) exited the game briefly, he turned in a masterful total in a key victory over the Lakers' intrastate rival. His 20 rebounds were a season high by a wide margin, and he easily won the interior duel with Domantas Sabonis, who managed a lesser 18/12 total. Davis and LeBron James both have lingering injuries but are managing to play through them, although James' injury appears to be more serious. Despite being a regular on the injury report, Davis has missed only one game this season, a significant achievement for the veteran.
