Will be re-evaluated in one week Coach Frank Vogel said Friday that Davis (knee) will be evaluated "next week," Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports. Impact Davis suffered a sprained MCL on Dec. 17 and was expected to be sidelined for at least a month, so it makes sense that he's due for an evaluation. Before his injury, he scored 20-plus points in 15 of his last 16 contests and was averaging 24.3 points, 9.8 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 2.1 blocks and 1.4 steals across 37.9 minutes during that stretch. The Lakers are expected to continue playing small ball with LeBron James at center until Davis is cleared to return.
