Davis (ankle) is probable for Friday's game against Memphis, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
This will be the third game in a row that Davis will carry a probable tag. He's been listed as questionable for the majority of the season, so this is a good sign. In his most recent outing against Miami on Wednesday, Davis had 29 points, 17 rebounds, six assists, five blocks and three steals.

Davis finished Wednesday's 110-96 loss to Miami with 29 points (10-17 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 9-10 FT), 17 rebounds, six assists, five blocks and three steals over 43 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Davis was on track to an even bigger total until the fourth quarter, when the Heat brought Bam Adebayo and Kevin Love on the floor together in an effort to control the paint. Davis could only manage three points against them, effectively squelching the Lakers' best chance of success. Davis is usually unstoppable, and opposing defenses have to resort to extreme measures to contain him. The Heat found an answer by going big in the final stanza. Despite the loss, Davis' work through three quarters earned him an excellent fantasy total.

Davis is probable for Wednesday's game versus Miami with a left ankle sprain, ESPN's Dave McMenamin reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis also has a bruise on his left ankle, but these are the same injuries he's been listed with for several weeks. However, Davis has only missed two games this entire season. Fantasy managers can anticipate that he'll most likely be in the lineup Wednesday.

Davis chipped in 20 points (7-15 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and five blocks over 35 minutes during Sunday's 129-109 loss to the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
Davis saw his streak of games with 25 or more points snapped at five, but he still has four double-doubles over his last five contests, and his two-way impact has been noticeable this season. An argument could be made to say Davis is the Lakers' go-to player on offense now that LeBron James is running the point, and the numbers back that up. Since the start of December onwards, Davis has averaged 28.5 points, 12.3 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 2.5 blocks per contest.

EDGE Analysis

LeBron James (illness, knee) will also be active for the Lakers. Davis fared well in Saturday's loss to Minnesota, producing 33 points, 17 rebounds, eight assists, four steals and two blocks.

EDGE Analysis
Davis played 39 minutes in Saturday's two-point loss to Minnesota, totaling 33 points, 17 rebounds, eight assists, four steals and two blocks. The superstar center will likely be back in action Sunday, but LeBron James (knee, illness) is questionable, while D'Angelo Russell (tailbone) and Cam Reddish (groin) have been ruled out.

Davis is questionable for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves due to a left ankle bone bruise.
EDGE Analysis
Davis and LeBron James (knee) are on the injury report once again, but the former has appeared in six straight games and has missed just one contest since Nov. 10. Over his last six appearances, Davis has averaged 29.0 points, 11.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 2.3 blocks and 1.0 steals in 36.6 minutes per game. If Davis is sidelined, Jaxson Hayes, Christian Wood, Jarred Vanderbilt and Rui Hachimura would all be candidates for increased roles.

Davis notched 26 points (11-19 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, four blocks and two steals over 26 minutes during Thursday's 133-112 win over Charlotte.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran center was the top scorer on the night, as Davis eclipsed 25 points for the fourth straight game and the ninth time in 11 December contests. He's averaging 28.9 points, 12.1 boards, 2.9 assists, 2.3 blocks and 1.1 steals on the month and has even found success from three-point range, shooting 47.1 percent on fairly low volume (8-for-17). Health remains the biggest concern for Davis, but so far so good in 2023-24 -- he's missed only two of the Lakers' 32 games.
