Favors knee soreness takes him out

Left the game after a quarter tonight. That's not good. Last season he missed more games than Gobert, no? Is this just going to be a chronic thing? The season barely began.

Get well, Faves.

He came back from his other weird injury too soon... never completed balance beam and his ribbon twirling routine sucked ***.

On the real though... I did not see him hurt it so yeah a non contact injury on the knee for a guy who has been struggling is worrisome.
 
KEEP HIM OUT! LET HIM HEAL! SON OF A BITCH!
 
Bummer.

Favors to me never looked even 80% of his normal self. My guess is he's been running weird and his knee or leg is legit hurting cause of it.

It seems like its been a year since Favors has been 100%. He was beasting early last year before he went down.

This has to be a red flag if thinking of resigning him long term. I love DFAV but he may be the odd man out.

It's definitely a red-flag to extending him for anywhere near a max contract. But it might also be an opportunity to cut a deal that offers him security.

I've been saying that for a while. Jazz are much better defensively with Rudy and Favs both in the game. But we can't pay everyone and Lyles is developing nicely. At this point, I'd prioritize Hood and Hill. Use our draft picks on bigs. Who knows, maybe even Bolomboy develops into a very good back up to Lyles.

Lyles looks about as good as he did to start his rookie year, which isnt good. I still have faith in Lyles, but he is spacey on defense and inconsistent on offense. He isnt really someone I have 100% confidence in to be a successor to Favors if he where to leave.

I still feel like you have to prioritize Favors, he is our 2nd best overall player behind Hayward.

Hayward/Gobert>Favors>Hood>Exum>Hill>

I would consider that the pecking order of level of importance to the team.

A healthy Favs, yes. But he's averaging what, around 70 games/per over the 5 years he's been with Utah (and might be on pace to miss at least that much again)? He misses 10+ every season with various injuries, some of which just might be chronic. This is a guy in his prime who just can't stay healthy.

Averaging 70 games a season for a big is nothing to sneeze at. He played pretty well last year, if he can play that well at partial capacity then I'd be pretty excited to keep him even knowing he has a chance at always being hampered by something.

They can always rest him up before the playoffs Popovich style, that's all that matters, not regular season champions.
