F Ed Davis came off the bench for season highs in points (17) and rebounds (15) to lead the Portland Trail Blazers past the Los Angeles Clippers 102-91 Friday night at the Moda Center.

My man usually goes to try to block the shot, and I get wide-open put-backs."

Davis recorded five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, and two blocked shots over 16 minutes in Monday's preseason win over the Jazz.
Davis brought plenty of energy coming off the Blazers' bench, though he was a tad too aggressive at times with four fouls. The 6-foot-10 big man has bounced around the league over the last six seasons, but he should find a role in the Blazers' frontcourt rotation after the team noticed several personnel losses during the offseason. Davis and Noah Vonleh are expected to serve as the top two bigs off the bench behind presumptive starters Meyers Leonard and Mason Plumlee.

Davis is set on improving his free-throw shooting and playing all 82 games this season, Basketball Insiders reports.
Davis, the recipient of a three-year, $20 million deal this offseason, joined a Blazers squad ripe with playing time. Throughout his career, Davis has exhibited the skills of a traditional center without the requisite size. He played a career-high 81 games three seasons ago, and he's only started 82 games combined in his six-year career. Attempting a career-high 189 free throws last season, Davis shot a career-low 49 percent from the free-throw line, making him a liability late in games. He's a terror on the offensive glass, but his game lacks noticeable holes. He'll compete with Meyers Leonard, Noah Vonleh, and Mason Plumlee for frontcourt minutes, and he'll help any fantasy roster striving solely for field-goal percentage and blocks.
Thu Jul 2 201514:47Davis agreed to three-year
Davis agreed to a three-year, $20 million contract with the Blazers on Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports reports.
With plenty of holes to fill, Portland will bring in Davis on a very affordable deal. The Blazers are thought to still be in the hunt to retain LaMarcus Aldridge and Robin Lopez, but if one or both sign elsewhere, Davis could see an increased role. Aldridge's decision, in particular, will have the biggest effect on Davis, who projects as the starting power forward if Aldridge leaves.

Davis has officially opted out of his contract and will test free agency, Eric Pincus of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Davis signed a two-year, $2 million contract prior to the 2014-15 season, but he'll head to free agency in hopes of a longer term deal and more money. Davis has expressed a desire to return to the Lakers, but considering Los Angeles will likely go after a few prized free agents, it's questionable at this point if they'll be willing to bring him back. After showing some improvement during his fifth season, Davis is slated to see plenty of interest on the open market.
Sat Jun 20 201513:30Davis said he wants to return to Lakers next season
Davis said he wants to return to the Lakers next season, Mark Medina of the LA Daily News reports."I definitely want to be back," Davis said. "With everything being equal, I'm 100 percent going back there. Hopefully that's the case. But with free agency and all the stuff going on with the draft, you never know how things are going to go."
Davis had a very promising campaign with the Lakers in his fifth NBA season, posting averages of 8.3 points and 7.6 rebounds in just over 23 minutes per game. He has a roughly $1 million player option he can exercise this offseason to stay with the team, but given his production last season, he will likely want more money going forward. He's earned an increase in pay and given his willingness to stay and the Lakers' lack of true frontcourt depth, there's a good chance he is back in Los Angeles next season.
