EDGE Analysis

The All-Star forward has missed the Lakers' past two showings but will be back in the lineup for the team's showdown with Dallas on Wednesday. Dwight Howard figures to return to the bench due to Davis' return. The Lakers are certainly happy to have the Kentucky product back in their lineup, as he has averaged 24.0 points and 10.2 rebounds across 35.8 minutes per game to begin the season.
