Hood will be joining his fifth team in eight years in the NBA, having been selected by the Utah Jazz as the 23rd overall pick in the 2014 draft. Hood was part of the package Portland sent to Toronto in exchange for Norman Powell this past season, and with career averages of 11.3 ppg, 2.7 rpg and 1.8 apg, is a decent find on the open market for the Bucks. Hood bring length and perimeter shooting to the reigning NBA Champions.
