Glen Davis (foot) is expected to be healthy and ready for training camp.
Big Baby has lost an unspecified amount of weight after changing his diet in order to take pressure off of his foot, but there is a chance he is dealt in the offseason as the Magic continue their youth movement. "He has a decision to make," Davis said of GM Rob Hennigan when asked if he was in Orlando's long-term plans. "It could go both ways with a lot of things." Apr 28 - 9:22 AM

Glen Davis (foot) may be able to start running in May.

Davis said there is nothing to be gained by rushing his rehab, and he's right. He's also lost some weight to take additional stress off of his foot and has ample time to prepare for the start of next year.

Glen Davis has transitioned to a vegan diet in order to lose some weight.

Davis wants to keep the weight on his fractured foot, but that's only part of the reason he's changed his diet. Big Baby would probably improve his conditioning by losing a little weight and replacing it with muscle.

Glen Davis expects to shed his walking boot in two weeks, after which he can intensify his rehabilitation.

Big Baby is still a long way from playing in any games, with an original timetable that would have him back in early April at the earliest. He can safely be left on waiver wires for now.

Glen Davis had successful foot surgery on Friday.

Davis is expected to be out 8-12 weeks and is already resting at home after having a screw inserted into his foot. He's a supreme longshot to play again this season and there is no reason to hold him in any format.

Glen Davis - F/C - Magic

Glen Davis will undergo foot surgery on Friday for a fractured fifth metatarsal and is expected to miss 8-12 weeks.

The surgery will call for Davis to have a screw inserted in his foot. It's a tough blow to Big Baby after he had a shoulder injury earlier this year. It's officially time to cut bait with Davis, who will likely finish the season with averages of 15.1 points, 7.2 rebounds and 0.9 steals on 44.8 percent shooting. Even if he returns in just eight weeks, Davis would have eight games in April to make an impact, but the more probable scenario is he's sidelined longer than just eight weeks and winds up missing the rest of the season. The Magic could use a committee approach to replace Davis, but Andrew Nicholson could wind up being a fantasy sleeper if the Magic move to a youth movement. Keep an eye on the rookie.

Glen Davis could be done for the season after suffering a broken left foot on Wednesday night.

While we're still awaiting word on whether or not he'll require surgery, his fantasy season is likely over either way. He was sent to Orlando following the game, and Jacque Vaughn said "it's not good" when asked about the severity of the injury. No one really stepped up in Davis' absence when he missed 11 games with a shoulder injury earlier this season, so there's not a clear-cut winner on Orlando's bench. Hedo Turkoglu is a candidate to pick up the slack if he can stay healthy, but he's been a disaster this season. The bottom line is that it's time to drop Davis from your fantasy team and pick up a hot free agent.

Glen Davis suffered a broken left foot in Wednesday's game, according to coach Jacque Vaughn.

It's unclear whether he'll require surgery, but that cannot be good news and it's possible he's done for the season. Let's wait until we hear something from the team and doctors before jumping to any conclusions, but it would appear that Davis won't be useful to fantasy owners again any time soon. No one really stepped up in his absence when he was out with a shoulder injury, but maybe Hedo Turkoglu's hand will be healthy enough for him to step up his game.

Glen Davis - F/C - Magic

Glen Davis suffered a left foot injury and will not return to Wednesday's game.

Davis went to the locker room under his own power in the first quarter and getting ruled out is certainly not a good sign. He'll likely be re-evaluated on Thursday and should be considered questionable for Friday at Boston. The Magic are really hurting with Arron Afflalo (calf) down, so they'll call upon Mo Harkless, Andrew Nicholson and a host of others.

Glen Davis - F/C - Magic

Glen Davis played 39 minutes in a 97-77 loss to Brooklyn on Monday and had 15 points, five boards, three assists and one steal.

The 39 minutes were his most since he injured his shoulder on December 19. He won't be very helpful in blocks and percentages, but he's clearly over his injury. Nikola Vucevic had 18 points, nine boards, one assist and two blocks in 38 minutes on 9-of-13 shooting. Jameer Nelson cooled off, shooting 3-of-12 from the field for nine points with four boards, seven assists, two steals and three 3-pointers. All three of these Orlando players should be in standard lineups.

Glen Davis it 8-of-22 shots for 17 points, 12 rebounds and four assists on Sunday for his first double-double since Dec. 7.

His shoulder injury is still a bit of an issue, but he looked good tonight and should only get better from here on out. Fellow Magic big man Nikola Vucevic also double-doubled with 12 points, 15 boards and a block, but it wasn't enough against the Pistons.

Glen Davis shot 4-of-16 from the field for 11 points with three rebounds in 23 minutes against the Pistons on Tuesday.

He started the game shooting 1-of-8 from the field and his shot selection was for the birds. Davis missed all eight of his attempts from beyond 12 feet. He dropped his season field goal percentage to 44.8 percent, but he still should be owned in all leagues for his production in points and boards.

Glen Davis didn't seem bothered by his sore back on Sunday, as he scored a team-high 24 points with six rebounds, six assists, two steals and one block in 35 minutes.

Big Baby knocked down 10-of-16 field goals tonight, but it's the assists, steals and swats that really jump out in fantasy leagues. His shoulder has healed and his back clearly isn't a serious issue, so plug him into all lineups for Orlando's three-game week.

Glen Davis (sore lower back) participated in shootaround and he intends to play on Sunday.

Davis is working his way into his typical role, and fantasy owners may want to hold him out tonight, but at least he's healthy enough to play.

Glen Davis played 24 minutes and dealt with some sort of back issue in Friday's game, and finished with four points on 1-of-5 shooting, eight rebounds, three assists, and a steal.

Davis was also in foul trouble but he didn't leave the action due to his back, and we'll be watching to see what comes of this, if anything. Chances are he is just getting his conditioning back, and owners will want to be patient in most cases.
