RJ Davis (Los Angeles Lakers)
October 2025

The Lakers cut Davis in final roster trims despite solid preseason output (8.6 PPG in 16.1 MPG). The 2024 ACC Player of the Year is expected to funnel to the organization’s G League affiliate on an Exhibit 10 pathway if unclaimed. Depth and contract mechanics drove the decision as Los Angeles prioritised roster flexibility. Davis’ shooting résumé at UNC (career 39.8% from three in his fourth season) makes him a viable two-way/G League candidate for in-season call-ups.
