It is easy to lament the exit of Derrick Favors. It is weird it is to see him in another jersey. His defensive impact on the floor was remarkable. The defensive twin towers look Favors gave the Jazz when he started with Rudy Gobert was immeasurable. When talking about Derrick Favors replacements, it’s easy to instantly go to power forward potentials like Bojan Bogdanovic, Royce O’Neale, and Jeff Green. Those three will all see time at the position, but that’s not where the Jazz are going to miss Derrick Favors.
Ed Davis is not here to replace Derrick Favors, he’s here to be himself
