Derrick Favors (back) now probable for Pelicans versus Spurs

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Derrick Favors (back) has been upgraded to probable for Wednesday's game versus the San Antonio Spurs.

What It Means:

Favors was previously considered questionable for Wednesday and he said "we'll see" when asked about his status, but it looks like the veteran big will be back out there. He may come off the bench to make way for Zion Williamson's (knee) NBA debut. Jaxson Hayes started on Monday.

Per numberFire's NBA Heat Map, the Pelicans have the highest implied total (120.25 points) on Wednesday's 12-game slate and the game features the highest over/under (237.0 points).
