According to Tony Jones of the Athletic Derrick Favors isn’t a lock to return to the Utah Jazz.
After the Utah Jazz traded for Mike Conley, it was clear that the Jazz are ready to go for it next season. When you consider the injuries to Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson the window is open for a title run and Utah is not going to pass that up the chance.
Saying that Derrick Favors is not a lock to return isn’t saying he won’t be back, but it is clear that the Utah Jazz are going to be active in free agency to put the best team possible on the floor.
