Giannis Antetokounmpo had a career-high 29 points for the Bucks, while Michael Carter-Williams poured in 25, his highest-scoring total since being acquired last month in a trade-deadline deal. Khris Middleton also added 17 points, but the Bucks have dropped 7 of their last 9 games now.
The Bucks did take a 101-100 lead with 3:35 left to play but Davis scored the next eight in a row to help New Orleans close the game on a 14-2 run.
The Bucks are back home Wednesday to host the Orlando Magic.
