Davis recorded 15 points (6-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and five rebounds across 13 minutes in Saturday's 125-108 preseason loss to the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Davis was the focal point of the Lakers' offense when on the floor, and the star big man looked impressive on both ends of the court, emerging as the team's alpha dog with LeBron James (rest) sidelined. Davis' role as one of the go-to players for the Lakers is completely settled, and he's simply getting reps in order to be ready for the regular-season opener against the Nuggets.

The Lakers signed Davis to a three-year, $186 million contract extension Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Davis has established himself as one of the best big men in the NBA and has now signed the largest annual extension in league history at $62 million per season. The 30-year-old center is tied to the Lakers through 2027-28. Davis averaged 25.9 points, 12.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 2.0 blocks and 1.1 steals in 34.0 minutes across 56 games in 2022-23 and should continue to be the team's focal point along with LeBron James.

Davis provided 21 points (6-15 FG, 9-10 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal over 40 minutes during Monday's 113-111 loss to the Nuggets in Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals.

EDGE Analysis

Davis hauled in a team-high rebound total en route to posting a 20-point, 10 rebound performance for the third time of the Western Conference Finals series. Davis recorded a double-double in 13 of 16 postseason appearances.

Davis (foot) is probable for Monday's Game 4 against the Nuggets, Harrison Faigen of SBNation.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Davis continues to deal with his right foot stress injury, but he's been able to suit up recently and will likely do so again Monday as the Lakers attempt to avoid elimination. He's averaged 28.7 points, 14.0 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.7 blocks in 41.7 minutes per game over the first three games of the series.

Davis (foot) will play in Saturday's Game 3 versus Denver, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Davis will suit up for Saturday's tilt after being handed his usual probable designation. Through the first two games of the Western Conference Finals, Davis has averaged 29.0 points, 12.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 2.0 steals and 3.0 blocks across 41.5 minutes.

Davis (foot) is probable for Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals versus the Nuggets on Saturday, according to Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com.

EDGE Analysis

LeBron James (foot) is also probable for the Lakers. Davis has been listed as probable for the entire postseason for the same reason, so his status isn't in any real doubt for Game 3.

Davis totaled 18 points (4-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 9-11 FT), 14 rebounds, four assists, four blocks and one steal in 41 minutes during Thursday's 108-103 loss to Denver in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals.

EDGE Analysis

Davis struggled from the field and failed to replicate his 40-point outburst from Game 1, but he still provided his usual production on the glass and on defense. Across 14 appearances this postseason, the veteran big man has averaged 22.3 points, 13.7 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 3.2 blocks across 37.6 minutes per game. Despite his strong play in other categories, the Lakers will presumably need Davis to perform better on offense if they're going to get back into the series.

EDGE Analysis

Just like LeBron James (foot), Davis has been listed as probable with this foot injury for the entire postseason. Outside of a minor head injury in the previous series against Phoenix, Davis' health status has never really been in doubt for several weeks.

Davis (right foot stress injury) is probable for Thursday's Game 2 versus Denver, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Davis has earned a probable designation in every playoff game thus far due to the right foot issue but has yet to miss a contest. After exploding for 40 points and 10 rebounds in Game 1, fantasy managers should be eager to go back to the well with Davis for Game 2.
