On Wednesday afternoon, after Davis practiced with the team in Orlando, New Orleans upgrade Davis' status from "out" to "probable" for Thursday night's exhibition finale on the road against the Magic.

Davis, sources said, went through a practice Wednesday in Orlando without any issues.

The three-time All-Star suffered a sprained right ankle during the Pelicans' recent preseason trip to China. Davis has averaged 20.8 points, 9.7 rebounds and 2.4 blocked shots through his first four NBA seasons.
