With Carlos Boozer sidelined due to shoulder soreness, power forward Ed Davis was given a chance to prove himself in the starting lineup Sunday night when the Los Angeles Lakers took on the Denver Nuggets at Staples Center.
Before Sunday, Davis led the bench in scoring eight times this season, reaching double digits in scoring in six of them.
