- Davies described the move as very sudden in a statement released by the team after he asked to be released from active duty.
- He began his pro career with the Philadelphia 76ers in 2013, played 78 NBA games, then built his reputation in Europe with clubs such as Žalgiris, Barcelona, Milano and Partizan.
- Davies earned All‑EuroLeague First Team honors in 2018‑19 and Second Team in 2020‑21 and won domestic titles in Lithuania, Spain, Italy, Serbia and France during his career.
