  • Rockets' Deyonta Davis: Let go by Rockets

    Davis was waived by the Rockets on Tuesday, Alykhan Bijani of The Athletic reports.

    Davis has been claimed off waivers by the Rockets, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

  • Deyonta Davis: Cut loose by Atlanta

    The Hawks waived Davis on Monday, Chris Vivlamore of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Davis saw limited action during the 2018-2019 campaign, averaging four points along with four rebounds over nine games. He spent the first two seasons of his NBA career with Memphis (where he also failed to make much of an impact) before coming to the Hawks in March of 2019. Davis signed a multi-year contract with Atlanta in April following a pair of 10-day deals, but he's now in search of a new home.

  • Hawks' Deyonta Davis: Available to play Wednesday

    Davis (knee) is available for Wednesday's season finale against hte Pacers.

    Davis apparently injured his knee during Sunday's tilt with Milwaukee, although he still managed to see 13 minutes. He's good to go Wednesday and will likely approach the 4.3 points and 4.4 rebounds he's averaged in 14.4 minutes per game this year.

  • Hawks' Deyonta Davis: Questionable with knee soreness

    Davis will be a game-time call for Wednesday's game against Indiana due to soreness in his right knee, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

    It's unclear as to when the issue cropped up, but the Hawks will evaluate Davis closer to tipoff to determine his availability for the final regular-season contest. If he's ultimately ruled out, he'll end the 2018-2019 campaign averaging 4.3 points over eight games.

  • Hawks' Deyonta Davis: Agrees to deal with Atlanta

    Davis and the Hawks agreed to terms on a multi-year deal Monday, Michael Scotto of Basketball Insiders reports.

    Davis joined the Hawks in mid-March, and he's apparently shown enough that the team may be interested in keeping him around in the long-term. The contract is technically a multi-year deal, though it's partially guaranteed and likely includes a team option, so Davis is far from a lock to be on the roster next season.

  • Hawks' Deyonta Davis: Good to go Friday

    Davis (thumb) is available Friday against the Magic.

    As expected, Davis will be available. Across the past three games, he's averaging 5.3 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.0 assist and 1.0 block across 19.5 minutes.

  • Hawks' Deyonta Davis: Probable Friday

    Davis (thumb) is probable for Friday's matchup against Orlando.

    It appears as though Davis' thumb injury isn't severe, as the Michigan State product played through his injury during Wednesday's win. Although probably not 100-percent healthy right now, Davis' name on the injury report is likely a precaution taken by the Hawks.

  • Hawks' Deyonta Davis: Plays 18 minutes in Wednesday's win

    Davis had zero points (0-2 FG), six rebounds, two assists, and two blocks in 18 minutes during Wednesday's 130-122 win over the 76ers.

    Davis had been listed as probable due to a minor thumb injury. However, he was healthy enough to take the court and amassed a season high assist total while swatting two blocks for the second time in the last three games. Davis remains extremely limited offensively, having failed to reach double figures in scoring through six appearances this season. Still, he has good hands on the other end, and in light of frontcourt injuries (Dewayne Dedmon, Omari Spellman) the third-year big man could continue to provide decent production across the final three matchups.

  • Hawks' Deyonta Davis: Good to go

    Davis (thumb) will play Wednesday against the Sixers.

    Davis is dealing with a minor thumb issue, but he'll be available Wednesday as the backup to Alex Len. The Michigan State product had nine points and 10 rebounds in 20 minutes Tuesday against the Spurs.

    Davis (thumb) is probable Wednesday against the 76ers due to a sprained left thumb, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

  • Hawks' Deyonta Davis: Plays 18 minutes in Friday's loss

    Davis had six points (3-4 FG), four rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 18 minutes during Friday's 118-98 loss to the Trail Blazers.

    Davis combined to play seven minutes in his first two appearances this season but got a chance to run a bit more in this one. With that being said, he's merely a dart throw for those in daily leagues.

  • Hawks' Deyonta Davis: Signs second 10-day

    Davis will sign a second 10-day contract with the Hawks, Michael Scotto of The Athletic reports.

    The third-year player has just seven total minutes under his belt so far with Atlanta, and he'll close out the season with the Hawks as an emergency frontcourt option.

  • Hawks' Deyonta Davis: Reaches deal with Atlanta

    Davis agreed to a 10-day contract Tuesday with the Hawks, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

    After getting cut by the Warriors in training camp, Davis has played exclusively this season with the team's G League affiliate in Santa Cruz, where he's averaged 9.7 points (on 59.2 percent shooting from the field), 7.4 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.3 blocks in 23.4 minutes per contest. With Atlanta, Davis will presumably fill the roster spot that had belonged to Tyler Zeller, whose 10-day contract is set to expire. Davis is unlikely to unseat either Dewayne Dedmon or Alex Len as the first- or second-string option at center, but the Hawks will likely use the next week and a half to evaluate him for a spot on the 2019-20 roster.

  • Deyonta Davis: Leads way for Santa Cruz

    Davis poured in 24 points (12-14 FG) to go with 13 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 34 minutes Sunday in Santa Cruz's 120-105 loss to Windy City.

    Davis' contributions as a scorer and on the glass were tops on the team. The 22-year-old center has settled into a groove of late for Santa Cruz, posting double-doubles in five of his last eight outings.
