My Take
What I respect most about Derrick Favors is the quiet durability behind a flashy resume. A third overall pick in 2010 and a 208 cm frame practically demanded stardom, yet he carved out a long career as an unglamorous interior workhorse rather than a headline-grabber. Coming out of Georgia Tech and grinding all the way down to the G League's Windy City Bulls tells me everything about his appetite for the dirty work under the rim. Players like Favors rarely trend, but they hold rosters together, and I find that kind of dependable longevity genuinely admirable.
