According to cleveland.com’s Terry Pluto, the Cleveland Cavaliers are interested in signing 25-year-old restricted free agent Rodney Hood to a three-year contract.
Hood, a swingman who spent the first three and a half seasons of his career with the Utah Jazz before being dealt to the Cavs just prior to 2018’s NBA trade deadline, averaged 16.8 points per game for the Jazz and 10.8 points per game for the Cavs last season.
That the Cavs are rumored to be interested in signing Hood to a three-year deal is relatively unexpected though the Cavaliers have long said Hood is part of their future and there was a recent report that the Cavs were interested in signing Hood to a long-term deal.
