Derrick Favors (knee) questionable for Jazz ahead of contest with Dallas

Utah Jazz forward/center Derrick Favors (right knee soreness) is questionable for Monday's game versus the Dallas Mavericks.

What It Means:

Favors was a late scratch on Sunday, and although Monday is a critical game for both the Jazz and Mavericks, this is a virtual non-update since there has been no new information provided. Favors will do everything he can to play considering what's on the line, but Trey Lyles would start in his place if Favors is unable to go.

Favors owns an impressive 6.8 nERD this season, which ranks 22nd. He's averaging 16.5 points, 8.2 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.5 blocks per game across 61 contests while making 51.6 percent of his shots from the field.
