Davis went 9 of 21 shooting from the field, and 4 of 6 from the free throw line. He posted a double-double with 22 points and 19 rebounds, with seven of them coming from the offensive end of the glass. He did all of his damage in 42 minutes of game action, also adding three assists, seven blocks and two steals.

Davis has doubled up in three of his last five games played. He has averaged 22.0 points, 12.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 4.0 blocks and 2.0 steals over that span.
