<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">PHILADELPHIA -- Glen "Big Baby" Davis sprained his left ankle during a workout with the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday, one day before the forward was expected to be picked in the NBA draft. Davis landed on another player's foot during a routine drill, limped off the court and had the mildly sprained ankle taped. It was the second time the hefty Davis worked out for the Sixers and the second time he got hurt. He injured his elbow and cut his lip in the first workout in early June. The 6-foot-9 Davis, who once weighed 360 pounds at LSU, says he wants to weigh about 285 by training camp and said he expected to be drafted "from 17 on down." He says he is currently about 290. The Sixers have four picks in Thursday night's draft and Davis hoped to be one of them -- even if the city isn't necessarily known for the healthiest food. "I'm not worried about no cheesesteaks," he said. "I'm done with all that unhealthy food. I might eat a couple of snacks here and there, I'm still a kid, but this is my job. This is what I do." Davis averaged 17.7 points and 10.4 rebounds this past season for the Tigers.</div> Source: ESPN
I wouldn't be opposed to getting him at 44, but I would probably prefer Jamareo Davidson, Carl Landry, Stephen Lasme and Nick Fazekas over him. As long as we go for a backup big or go after Taureen Green I won't be too disappointed.
<div class="quote_poster">CLos Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Taureen Green?? Don't you think we have enough PGs?</div> Green is just a selfish move for me. I would love to have one of the Gators on our team. For the teams sake, hopefully we draft either a foreigner or a backup big man.
LOL oh ok I know you love your Gators but I believe we need a big man. Now if Horford dropped to #44 lol then I'll be happy.

Glen Davis would be a steal I reckon, hopefully the injury isn't too serious. It would be very nice to have a young quality big backing up Dwight/Darko.
