Derrick Favors (knee) will remain out for Jazz on Saturday
Utah Jazz forward/center Derrick Favors (knee) will not play against the Clippers on Saturday.
Favors hasn't played since March 7, but he was able to get some balls up during Friday's practice. The Jazz aren't going to rush to bring him back anytime soon. Joe Johnson has struggled a bit recently, but he remains the superior DFS option to Boris Diaw, who was named the starter when the Jazz last faced the Clippers on March 13.
Johnson has struggled with his shot lately, going 8-of-29 (27.6 percent) from the field, including 1-for-9 on 3-point attempts, over the last three games while averaging 6.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.0 assists.
