Stays hot in rout of LSU Davis had 16 points (7-8 FG, 2-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists and two steals over 40 minutes during Tuesday's 60-40 win over LSU. Impact Davis has picked up a starting role and established himself as the primary ball-handler in the absence of five-star freshman Nick Smith (knee). To say it has gone well would be an understatement, as Davis is averaging 13.9 points, 5.9 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.4 steals over his last eight games, reaching double figures in seven of them. He's also played 38 or more minutes in six of those games, so the volume appears to be safe. There's a risk he concedes time to Smith if he eventually returns, but for the time being, lock Davis into season-long lineups.
