Scoring Ability

Throughout his career, Hood has been an efficient scorer. Through four seasons he is averaging 13 points per contest while shooting 41.9% from the floor, 36.9% from beyond the arc, and 82.8% from the free-throw line.

At the least, Hood will be a spot-up shooter for any team which is valuable considering how key the three-point shot is in today’s NBA. The Kings currently need more shooters on their squad, and Hood can be the solution to that.

Speaking of filling a need, let us move on to the next slide!
