This dude carried the team in the playoffs, unless you believe in the "every other day" offensive statlines, and ignore half the court. I really hope we can avoid the low-effort "day to day" Davis nonsense that r/NBA deteriorated into. So even if he doesn't play 80 games in the regular season, you're paying him to show up for 16 wins in the playoffs, which he has done before. Whether or not the rest of the team can also deliver is up to debate.
