Locke saying he's the #1 iso player in January. I couldn't find stats for just Jan.
On the year for iso with at least 50 attempts:
Converts on 50% #7
ppp 1.15 #2
efg% 57.1 #1

Knock would be he is not drawing fouls.
Rodney is going to be a great player!

I'd like to see him thread a backdoor pass and play better D before I give him the same vote of confidence. Q isn't helping him with the former.

Still, no doubt he's a steal for where he was drafted.

Hack proceeds to say: Jazz suck at drafting. Ha ha ha! Here's my lollipop. Care for a suckle?
 
I like that Hood has been able to score inside as well. If he can keep healthy and improve even more in the offseason he's going to make things a lot easier. He's such a threat he opens the paint and then some. And I like his playmaking ability. Didn't expect that to the degree it's been.
 
Amazing month for Hood. However, I do expect another few slumps. He's young, but the future seems bright for this kid. Glad he's on our side.
 
Hood now at 18.4 ppg in January an Hayward is at 22 ppg in January.

Is there a better starting wing combination in the NBA in terms of scoring right now?

Middleton and Giannis have to be the only two to come close. They are at 22 and 16.2 in January, respectively.
 
He's at 93 career games. So just barely over one season of play. I'm ecstatic with where Hood is right now.
 
Hood's up n down game reminds me of Hayward's first few years.



(Spycalt, quick, tag this to bump in three years)
 
Love Rodney Hood and his play as of late is showing why. He is only improving and he already has the shot, so the savvy will only get better as his career progresses.
 
This is especially impressive considering how awful he was to start the season.

Good on Quin for letting him shoot his way through it. I'd have benched him in favor of Burks a long time ago and probably stunted his growth this year.

Snyder deserves a lot of flack for some of the lineups and offensive woes, but he should also get credit for keeping them in the playoff hunt despite the injuries and developing the hell out of Neto, Hood and Lyles.

Really good point, never even considered that. It's actually kind of crazy how much legitimate PG play could improve this team wins wise.
 
When I saw him shooting in warm ups at the jazz scrimmage after we drafted him I was certain he would be deadly from outside. Beautiful shot.

The fact that he can put it on the floor, hit the midrange shot, and pass is all just icing on the cake.

Gallinari and Barton have been awesome in Denver but I guess Barton doesn't start..
