Fantasy Impact:

If Davis is healthy, he is a top five fantasy basketball player. Davis has averaged an incredible 20.8 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 2.4 blocked shots in his first four seasons in the NBA. Fantasy owners and the Pelicans are hoping that Davis can stay healthy for a full NBA season for the first time in his career.
