Favors returns in Jazz's victory over Heat

Russ Isabella-USA TODAY Sports

The Utah Jazz did the Miami Heat no favors Wednesday night.

Jazz power forward Derrick Favors, who missed two straight games with a sprained right ankle, was back in the lineup and helped his club to a 105-87 win on the road. 

The Heat were missing Chris Bosh and although Dwyane Wade turned back the clock, Utah won easily, thanks in part to a 33-point first quarter. 

Favors had 11 points on 3-of-8 shooting, made 5-of-7 free throws, and added six rebounds, an assist, a steal and a block in 33 minutes.
