Via ESPN:
Davis suffered the injury in the first quarter of Sunday’s game against the New York Knicks. He said he hit his hand on the rim while going up to try and compete an alley-oop.
He went to the bench with 1:32 to play and did not return. Despite losing Davis, the Pelicans won 103-99 to hand the Knicks their ninth straight loss.
“I haven’t found anything out yet,” Davis said after the game. “Most definitely I hope it’s a short term thing,”
Pelicans coach Monty Williams did not have any additional information on Davis’ condition.
“I know he hit his hand on the rim on the lob, but I can’t give you an update,” he said.
