Derrick Favors: Misses practice again Saturday

Favors sat out Wednesday’s preseason finale, and has subsequently been sidelined at practice. A nagging back injury kept the big man out for 20 games last year, so the Jazz may be exercising caution in order to avoid a lingering issue heading into the regular season. There is no reason for serious concern at this point, but the issue will need to be monitored going forward.
