Derrick Favors: Questionable for Game 1

Favors helped close out the Clippers in the first round of the playoffs over the
weekend, posting an impressive 17-point, 11-rebound showing on Sunday. However,
it appears he may have tweaked his lower back during the contest, as he’s now
dealing with some discomfort and was held out of Monday’s practice. Another
update on his status should be provided following Tuesday’s morning shootaround,
but an absence from Favors would be a huge blow to the team’s depth in the
frontcourt.
