Sniffs triple-double in loss Davis notched 28 points (11-25 FG, 6-6 FT), nine rebounds, eight assists, three blocks and two steals over 35 minutes during Sunday's 129-118 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Davis did all he could, but the Lakers' playoff hopes fizzled before their eyes despite Davis' excellent totals. The Spurs hold the tiebreaker over the Lakers, which made Sunday's game a must-win, but Davis had his hands full without LeBron James (knee) alongside him. We should expect the Lakers to play Davis until the end, although their playoff fate is mostly out of their hands at this point.

Ready to play Sunday Davis (foot) is available for Sunday's game against Denver, Mike Trudell of the Lakers' official site reports.

Impact Davis had 3 points (8-17 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-9 FT), 12 rebounds, six assists and one steal over 37 minutes in his first game back from a mid-foot sprain Friday, and he's good to go Sunday after initially being labeled questionable. The 29-year-old should take on a larger offensive workload versus the Nuggets since LeBron James (ankle) is unavailable.

Questionable Sunday Davis (foot) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Nuggets, Harrison Faigen of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Davis played a shocking 37 minutes in his first game back from a sprained foot following an 18-game absence. He's understandably dealing with some soreness after posting 23 points, 12 boards, six assists and one steal. LeBron James (ankle) is also questionable, so fantasy managers need to keep an eye on the Lakers' injury report leading up to tipoff.

The Lakers' postseason hopes continue to vanish with Friday night's loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. Melissa Rohlin has the story.

Handles big minutes in return Davis ended with 23 points (8-17 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 6-9 FT), 12 rebounds, six assists and one steal in 37 minutes during Friday's 114-111 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact After missing the previous 18 games with a foot injury, Davis was back in the lineup for the first time since the final game before the All-Star break. While he didn't show many signs of rust, his 23 points, 12 boards and six assists weren't enough to push the Lakers past the Pelicans in an ultra-important game for play-in purposes. Now trailing the Spurs by 1.0 game, and lacking the tiebreaker, the Lakers are on course to do the unthinkable and miss the playoffs entirely.

Officially questionable Friday Davis (foot), who is planning to play, is officially questionable for Friday's game against the Pelicans, Harrison Faigen of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Davis was initially expected to be a game-time call, then it seemed like he was essentially a lock to play, but now he's being listed as questionable. It's tough to discern exactly what to expect, but fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if he takes the court for the first time since Feb. 16. A minutes limit could be attached to his return given the long layoff, but the Lakers are in do-or-die territory.
