In case you were wondering why Derrick Favors decided to stay in Utah, he went ahead and told everyone first-hand, straight from his own mouth. After the Jazz big man agreed to his two-year, $36 Million contract with Utah, he opened up about his life, his home, upbringing, and how Utah has become his place. In a very Player’s Tribune-esque manner, Favors posted a first-hand article stating the reason he decided to stay in Utah and stick around with this team.
No one can also ignore the way that Favors tweeted this out, with the exact same words that Gordon Hayward titled his PT piece a year ago.
