He finished with six points on 1-for-4 shooting from the floor, including 1-for-2 from beyond the arc and 3-for-4 from the free-throw line. He added five rebounds, including a team-high three on the offensive end to go along with a steal and a block in 19:11.

Davies did all of his scoring in the first half. He hit two free-throws in the first quarter and then added a 3-point shot and another free-throw early in the second.
