Nets rookie forward Derrick Favors struggled mightily in the preseason, but his play so far this season has been refreshing.
He's averaging a double-double and shooting 58% from the field in the early going and a league executive told Ken Berger of CBS Sports that Favors' "stock has skyrocketed."
New Jersey had hoped to use Favors in a trade to acquire Carmelo Anthony from Denver before the season, but the Nuggets weren't sold on what the Nets were offering.
The Nuggets are now believed to be in wait-and-see mode in terms of what they'll be offered and how they play this season.
