Derrick Favors to warm up for Jazz, will be a game-time call

Utah Jazz forward/center Derrick Favors (knee) will warm up and is a game-time decision to face the Dallas Mavericks on Monday.

What It Means:

This game is huge, but Trey Lyles was a revelation on Sunday in a win. If Favors is out again, it'll be Lyles benefiting in a game suited to his style. We should have an update in about 90 minutes.

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.
