Jazz rule out Derrick Favors for Saturday

Utah Jazz forward/center Derrick Favors (knee) is out again for Saturday against the Chicago Bulls.

What It Means:

He's basically out indefinitely and can be dropped in most leagues. The Jazz have liked their small-ball lineup and will likely use it again against the Bulls. That should help Joe Johnson and Joe Ingles, especially if a questionable Rodney Hood can't play.

Prior to this news, our models projected Favors for 9.7 points, 6.1 rebounds, and 1.2 assists in 24.5 minutes on Saturday.
