A lot can change in year in the NBA — just ask former Utah Jazz guard Rodney Hood. Last January, he was in the midst of a career year with the Jazz, putting up nearly 17 points per contest and nailing just under 40 percent of his triples.
Sure, he lost his starting spot to wunderkind Donovan Mitchell, but Hood still looked the part of a two-guard on the rise in the league. And he was well on his way to snagging a big-money contract once he entered free agency after the season.
Fast-forward to now and Hood is set to return to Vivint Smart Home Arena for the first time as a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
