Derrick Favors Probable Versus Wizards

Utah Jazz forward/center Derrick Favors (ankle) is probable for Wednesday's contest against the Washington Wizards. It's odd to see Favors pop up on the injury report with an ankle injury.

Washington Wizards forward Otto Porter (hip, back) is probable to play against the Utah Jazz on Wednesday. Head coach Scott Brooks said Porter will be "good to go" for Wednesday's contest.

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley has been seemingly unstoppable all season long, and that continued in Saturday's contest against the Falcons.
