Trevor Booker will start Saturday against the Pelicans

Booker will start Saturday against the Pelicans, Tony Jones of the Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Analysis:

Booker will get the start in place of Derrick Favors, who was ruled out of Saturday's game due to personal reasons. Booker's been an effective rebounder for the Jazz off the bench, but he's failed to score in double digits more than once this season -- a trend that could change Saturday.
