Utah Jazz big man Derrick Favors is quickly becoming one of the league’s rising frontcourt stars. At one time, he was something of an unknown among casual NBA fans, but the masses are starting to catch on. 16 points, eight rebounds and nearly two block per game will do that for you.
However, Favors’ impact on the world goes far beyond what he does on the hardwood. The former Georgia Tech star has also become an example to professional athletes everywhere with his charitable exploits.
Any way you slice it, this guy rocks.
