JD Davison - Plays 19 minutes in close defeat Davison (knee) had four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four rebounds and four assists in 19 minutes during Tuesday's 79-78 loss to Davidson.
Impact Davison was dealing with an apparent knee injury coming into Tuesday's action but was still able to log notable minutes off the bench. The 6-3 freshman is averaging 16 minutes over his last two games and is clearly showing signs of being limited after he averaged 25.6 minutes through the first 10 games of the year. Davison continues to play a key bench role for the Tide but his knee injury appears to be slowing him down a bit.
