"He said he can't jump off it yet, and I would say the next four games are a no," Coach Byron Scott said. Scott is not expecting Davis to return until possibly Feb. 2 against the Dallas Mavericks at New Orleans Arena. Davis has been sidelined for five consecutive games after getting kicked in his right ankle Jan. 16 against the Toronto Raptors. "I thought by the Indiana (Jan. 19) or the Clippers game (Jan. 22) he would be back," Scott said. "So it's a lot longer than I thought. He said his treatments are going well and he feels better, but it's going to take about a week." Dan Dickau has done a good job filling in for Davis. Dickau has scored 13 or more points in 16 of the past 29 games. Scott also plans to give Casey Jacobsen, acquired last week in a trade with the Phoenix Suns, some playing time as the backup point guard. "I think Casey proved in Miami (Sunday) that he can definitely be a backup point guard with no problem," Scott said. "He's smart enough and can handle the ball well enough." DIFFERENT EXPERIENCE: Former Hornets guard David Wesley said it felt awkward to be in the visitors' locker room Wednesday night. Wesley returned to New Orleans Arena for the first time since he was traded to the Houston Rockets last month. "I had to watch where I wasn't supposed to be," Wesley said. "But I went into the Hornets' locker room in the morning (before the Rockets' shoot-around) and got a doughnut." NO GRUDGE: Forward Bostjan Nachbar played against his former Rockets teammates for the first time since his trade to New Orleans on Dec. 27. Nachbar and Rockets center Yao Ming are good friends, and Nachbar said he hasn't forgotten about a $60 bet he still owes Ming. "We were playing a shooting game almost every day in practice against the guards and bigs (centers and forwards) and he won more than the guards did, so I owe him money and I will take care of it," Nachbar said, grinning. (XD) Nachbar said he watches the Rockets play on television and calls to congratulate former teammates who have sensational games. "I had a great time in Houston," said Nachbar, who went scoreless after playing nine minutes Wednesday. "I'm still friends with a lot of those guys. But we realize once we step out on the court, it's going to be a war." BLOCK MAN: Backup center Chris Andersen extended his streak of blocking at least one shot to 13 games. He kept the streak going during the third quarter when he blocked a driving shot in the post by Yao. Andersen leads the Hornets with 50 blocks. TURNAROUND: On Sunday, P.J. Brown missed nine of 10 shots and was held to two points in 29 minutes against the Miami Heat. He made sure not to have a repeat against the Rockets. Brown made six of his first 10 shots and had 15 points after three quarters. He finished with 17 points on 7-of-14 shooting. QUICK SHOTS: The Hornets played their 100th game at New Orleans Arena since their move from Charlotte, N.C., at the end of the 2001-02 season. They are 59-41 at the Arena. . . . The Hornets reached the midway point of the season after Wednesday's game. They have 41 games left in the regular season. . . . . . . .
