Ed Davis will miss at least 1-2 weeks of action. The Blazers big man suffered a right ankle sprain Friday night, as confirmed by an MRI. He turned the ankle during an awkward landing in the second half, and limped to the locker room. Since the 1-2 week estimate is solely for re-evaluation, he may still miss more time afterward.
