With Al Jefferson (ankle) still out, Favors started and knocked down 11-of-20 shots for 23 points with 15 rebounds, an assist, a steal and a block. Maybe the most impressive stat for Favors: He didn't foul -- at all.
Millsap played 44 minutes and double-doubled with 22 points and 14 rebounds in his first game back from an ankle injury. Millsap added three assists and three steals.
Kanter returned to the bench but played 32 minutes and also double-doubled with 18 points and 10 rebounds. Enes The Undertaker also equaled Favors' line with an assist, a steal and a block.
Alec Burks put together one of his best lines of the season: 19 points on 7-of-10 shooting with a three, three rebounds, four assists and two steals in 36 minutes. Burks appeared to cut into Randy Foye's minutes, who only played 20 and missed all six of his shots.
Utah has a bench full of young studs. As long as they're getting minutes, each of them should be able to put up numbers.
