Davis, 27, has been working on his craft with the Milwaukee Bucks' G-League affiliate, the Wisconsin Herd, this season, where he's averaging 14.3 points per game, while shooting a blistering 40.2% from beyond-the-arc.
After going undrafted in the 2019 NBA Draft, Davis actually began his professional career with the Denver Nuggets during that season's Summer League. Davis' performances during the summer earned him a two-year contract with the Toronto Raptors, where he'd average 7.2 points per game to go along with 2.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists per contest.
At the 2021 trade deadline, Davis was traded to the Sacramento Kings for a second-round pick. Over the course of three seasons in Sac-town, Davis scored 9.4 points per contest while adding 2.9 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game in 105 games with the Kings.
Davis' first chance to see some action with Sacramento will come on Wednesday night when the Kings host the now David Adelman-led Denver Nuggets at 10:00 p.m. EST.

The World Junior Summer Showcase is in full swing, and Maple Leafs top prospect Ben Danford is shattering expectations, truly proving how good of a player he can be. The Toronto Maple Leafs' defensive prospect, Ben Danford, is among the 44 players who were invited to Hockey Canada's World Juniors Summer Showcase. Hockey Canada finally unveiled the 44 prospects who will head to Minnesota for the showcase, after they held the roster release back while the organization dealt with several injuries, which begins Sunday and runs through August 2 in Minneapolis. Defensive prospect Ben Danford is the only Maple Leafs player invited to the annual showcase, where Canada's World Junior staff will get their first look at what their team might look like for the 2026 World Juniors, which will also take place in Minnesota in December. Danford is being called the best player at the World Juniors Summer Showcase Danford has been exceeding expectations, and one source revealed that he has been the best player at the World Junior Showcase so far. The source said Danford is steady, smart, and hard to ignore on the ice. 'Ben Danford has been the best player at the World Junior Showcase he's steady, smart, and impossible to ignore. Makes every shift count, whether he's breaking up plays or starting the rush. Canada's blue line is in good hands.' - An unnamed source The Maple Leafs selected Danford with their first pick (31st overall) at the 2024 NHL Draft. During his visit to Toronto's development camp earlier this month, the defender revealed that he's receiving mentorship from current Leafs defensemen as well as some alumni like Mark Giordano. The 6-foot-2 Danford could make for an excellent fit for Canada should he make the team. He is responsible in his own end, and he demonstrated leadership capabilities when he was named captain of the Oshawa Generals ahead of the 2024-25 OHL season.
The Detroit Tigers have been unstoppable at the plate lately, and Tuesday night was no different. The Tigers defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks, 12-2, giving them 27 runs in the last three games. A big contributor to their offense on Tuesday was outfielder Wenceel Perez, who joined Sam Crawford (1912), Ossie Vitt (1915) and Ty Cobb (1924, 1916, 1915) as the only four players in franchise history to have a single, double, triple and two stolen bases in the same game. Perez began his historic night with a double off Diamondbacks starter Brandon Pfaadt in the second inning before adding a single in the fourth. A monster fifth inning put the Tigers ahead 8-2 after an early 2-0 deficit, which set the stage for a three-run sixth inning that included this triple from Perez off Arizona's Jake Woodford to give Detroit a 10-2 lead. Perez scored two more runs, one in the sixth and the other in eighth, to give the Tigers their final two runs in a 12-run outburst. Overall, Perez had three hits in five at-bats, scored four runs and added one RBI to go with his historic statline. Given his performance over the past month, it was surprising to see Perez show out against Arizona. After all, he did not have a single hit the last two games, and he only recorded more than one hit once in 20 games the entire month coming into Tuesday. The Tigers were once the hottest team in baseball when they held a 59-34 record on July 8. Since then, they suffered a slump that includes a six-game losing streak. Suddenly, Detroit has won its last three and scored 10 or more runs in two of those victories. As good as the offense has been, the pitching has been solid as well with the Tigers outscoring their opponents 27-7 during the three-game stretch. Yes, the last two wins have come against a struggling Diamondbacks team that sits fourth in the NL West with a 51-57 record. Still, they have taken care of business and won handily. The next step is getting healthy and having someone to pair with ace Tarik Skubal in the rotation. Right-hander Chris Paddack was added to the 26-man roster and is set to start Wednesday, while free agent signing Alex Cobb is beginning his rehab assignment. The Tigers will go for the sweep of the Diamondbacks on Wednesday before traveling to Philadelphia for a weekend series against the Phillies. It will be difficult to top Perez's historic outing from Tuesday, but if momentum is any indication, the Tigers may only be getting started, especially if the pitching depth is there.
The MLB trade deadline is on Thursday, July 31, at 6 p.m. EST. The New York Yankees have already added third baseman Ryan McMahon and utility man Amed Rosario to the roster. However, it sounds like Hall of Fame pitcher Pedro Martinez has two potential targets the front office could trade for before the deadline. Martinez got the rumor mill churning again after naming Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara and Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suarez as potential trade options for the Yankees. Martinez does question whether or not New York can afford to trade for either one of those players, but he also admits that anything could happen at this point. “Trade deadline: Alcantara and Suarez could be key additions for the Yankees, but can they afford it? Anything could happen.” Sandy Alcantara, who is 29 years old, has been involved in trade rumors for several weeks. The Yankees are not the only team linked to Alcantara, but he would make for a great addition to New York. Alcantara hasn’t had the most successful season, but a change of scenery could change that. Through 104.0 innings pitched, Alcantara owns a 6.66 ERA and 1.433 WHIP while recording 77 strikeouts. As for Eugenio Suarez, the Yankees already addressed their third base problem by acquiring McMahon from the Colorado Rockies. So, a trade for Suarez seems a bit less likely. Regardless, the 34-year-old third baseman is having a spectacular year and is one of the hottest names in the rumor mill. Through 383 at-bats, Suarez owns a .248 batting average and .321 OBP while recording 95 hits, 36 home runs, and 87 RBIs. The Yankees are in second place in the AL East with only the Toronto Blue Jays ahead of them. We’ll see if the front office has one more trick up its sleeve to potentially improve the roster. But only time will tell if New York can manage to pull off a deal that would truly benefit its World Series chances.
