Derrick Favors scores season-high 24 points as Utah dismantles Rockets
Utah Jazz forward/center Derrick Favors scored a season-high 24 points (10-of-13 field goals, 4-of-4 free throws) with 10 rebounds, 1 steal, 1 block, and 1 turnover in 26.0 minutes of a 118-91 win over the Houston Rockets on Thursday.
What It Means:
Rudy Gobert was ejected within the first three minutes of the game, so Favors stepped up with his best game of the season. He also doubled his double-double total on the year, with both coming this month. The Jazz visit the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday.
Favors also turned in a season-high 41.0 FanDuel points in the victory. He's averaging 26.0 FanDuel points overall through 25 games.
