B. . Pf/C. Utah Jazz. DERRICK FAVORS

Overall GPA: 3.00 (B)

Last time around we talked about how Favors’ play seems to directly affect Utah’s success. Favors is averaging 15 points and nearly eight rebounds in Jazz wins and only nine points and five rebounds in losses.

Similar to last time, inconsistency continues to be the only knock on Favors’ game. With his future still up in the air, it would serve both the Jazz and Favors if he could show more consistency in his game.

Since posting three-straight 10-plus point games entering December, Favors has failed to post back to back double-digit efforts.

This is Favors’ third week in a row with a “B” grade. While it is hard to fault a guy with a 3.0 season average, Utah would cement themselves as a playoff team if Favors could improve into “B-plus” or”A” range.
