The Rockets recalled Davison from the G League's Rio Grande Valley Vipers on Sunday.
Davison joined the Vipers for Saturday's win over the Texas Legends, recording 26 points (9-18 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 13 assists, seven rebounds, three steals and one block in 39 minutes. The two-way player has yet to log double-digit minutes in a single game for the parent club, and he'll likely continue to provide emergency depth for Houston.
