Rodney Hood

A skilled scorer with experience in the NBA Playoffs is what the Golden State Warriors need. Rodney Hood checks all of these boxes.

Starting his career as a strong shot creator for the Utah Jazz, Hood has been on two teams since then.

Joining the Cleveland Cavaliers midway through the 2017-18 season, Hood became a key member to their NBA Finals run. Then, last season, Hood played a pivotal role in getting the Portland Trail Blazers to the Eastern Conference Finals.

With the Blazers, Hood averaged 14.7 points per game versus the Denver Nuggets to help the Blazers upset the Nuggets. He drilled multiple big-time shots and proved his worth as a role player.

The Warriors could certainly use a player of Hood’s expertise. He is capable of creating and making his own shots, which is something the Dubs are lacking on their bench.
