Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert is back in the lineup for Sunday's Game 4 versus the Los Angeles Clippers.

Derrick Favors returned to Utah's second unit with Gobert in the starting five.

Gobert missed virtually the entire series for Utah after hyperextending his left knee and suffering a bone contusion during the first quarter of Game 1.

The Defensive Player of the Year candidate was instrumental to the Jazz's success this season - Utah performed 11 points per 100 possessions better with the 24-year-old in the lineup.

The Jazz are looking to even the series Sunday after dropping their last two contests to Los Angeles.
