With 2.6 seconds remaining in overtime and Game 1 of the NBA Finals completely out of reach, Rodney Hood entered the game for Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James.
James exited the court with 51 points, eight rebounds and eight assists while Hood wasn’t in long enough to log any statistics as the Cavaliers lost to Golden State 124-114 in Oakland, California.
Afterward Hood called his mother, Vicky, who was miles away in Cleveland babysitting his 6-week-old twins, Riley and Rich.
The 2017-18 NBA season has been a roller coaster of highs and lows for Hood family, but the Rodney is doing his best to stay professional in the situation.
