Derrick Favors (back) out Friday night for Thunder

Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Derrick Favors will not play Friday in the team's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

What It Means:

Favors is apparently dealing with lower back soreness, and as a result, he will not play to start the weekend. Expect more minutes for Jeremiah Robinson-Earl and Mike Muscala.

In 28 games this season, Favors is averaging 5.4 points, 4.7 rebounds and 14.0 FanDuel points.
