Rodney Hood scores 16 points despite struggling offensively against Lakers

Rodney Hood (F - FA)

Rodney Hood's 16 points were buoyed by being a perfect 4-for-4 from the free throw line. Otherwise, he shot 29 percent from the field, and went 2-for-8 beyond the arc. He also put up a strong five rebounds and five assists.

Fantasy Impact
Hood is important to the Jazz's defense, often scoring consistently high in +/- differential, however his shooting has slumped recently. Thankfully, he gets enough volume to see him through the turbulence, as this was his third straight double-digit points game. With Alec Burks still out an indefinite amount of time, expect Hood to continue to put up quality numbers on 30-plus minutes played.
