Derrick Favors (knee) questionable as Jazz prepare for Lakers
Utah Jazz forward/center Derrick Favors (knee) didn't go through Wednesday's shootaround, and he's questionable to play versus the Los Angeles Lakers.
The Houston Rockets play at 8 p.m. while the Jazz play at 10:30 p.m., so if Houston is up big, there's a greater chance that Favors sits out. Utah needs a win and a Houston loss to steal the No. 8 seed. We're unlikely to get another update until close to tip-off.
Favors owns an impressive 6.2 nERD this season, which ranks 23rd. He's averaging 16.4 points, 8.1 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.5 blocks per game across 62 contests while making 51.5 percent of his shots from the field.
