Where do Utah Jazz players rank in a loaded Northwest Division?

(15) Derrick Favors (PF, Utah Jazz)

Favor’s spot in my top 15 is more about speculation then it is about his recent play.

Assuming the rumors are true and Favors is back to being 100 percent, we could see him knocking on the door of becoming a top 10 player in this loaded division by the end of the season.

Favors is just two years removed from averaging 16 points and eight rebounds per game and looking primed to take the next step. If he can channel at least something close to what he was for the Jazz between 2014 and 2016, he could end up even higher on this list by season’s end.

Just how far up remains to be seen.
