Deyonta Davis’s sophomore season in Memphis has ended and it leaves more questions than answers.
Is Davis a suitable back up for Marc Gasol long term?
Is Davis even an NBA role player?
Will he even be on the roster next year?
I say yes to all three. I also would go further to say that Deyonta Davis could have a DeAndre Jordan or Clint Capela type impact if put in the right situation. Let me be clear, I see Deyonta as a LESS athletic version of either guy.
Davis played 700 more minutes this season than his rookie campaign, allowing the front office, coaching staff, and fans to get a better look at what he brings to the table.
