Rodney Hood Named NBA’s Western Conference Rookie of the Month for April
http://ppt.cc/N0yV
SALT LAKE CITY (April 17, 2014) – The NBA announced today that Utah Jazz
guard/forward Rodney Hood has been named the Western Conference Rookie of the
Month for games played during the month of April.
“It’s a big honor, and rewarding to have fought through adversity before
finishing the season strong, both as a team and individually,” said Rodney
Hood. “My coaches and teammates have been really supportive of me throughout
the year, during the course of both injury and rookie growing pains, and it
has really helped having them behind me.”
Hood becomes the third player in franchise history to win a monthly rookie
honor, joining Karl Malone (Rookie of the Month in December 1985) and Trey
Burke (Rookie of the Month in December 2013, January 2014 and April 2014).
The award, which has been given monthly since the 1981-82 season, was
originally the NBA Rookie of the Month before splitting into Eastern and
Western Conference Rookies of the Month in 2001-02.
The 6-8, 215-pound guard/forward averaged 16.7 points (ranked fourth among
rookies in April) on 45.2 percent shooting, 3.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists (ranked
seventh among rookies in April) and 1.1 steals in the month. He also shot
91.3 percent from the free throw line (21-for-23). Hood scored in double
figures in six contests during April, including 20-or-more points on three
occasions. He helped the Jazz to a 5-3 record for the month, leading the
team in scoring twice (April 5 and April 8).
Here is a closer look at some of the month’s highlights for Hood:
April 5 at Sacramento: Scored a season-high 25 points and added four steals
and three rebounds in a 101-95 win over the Kings.
April 8 vs. Sacramento: Scored 20 points and added eight rebounds and four
assists in a 103-91 win over the Kings.
April 11 at Portland: Dished out a season-high eight assists to go with 21
points and two rebounds in a 111-105 win over the Trail Blazers.
In 50 games (21 starts) overall on the season, Hood averaged 8.7 points, 2.3
rebounds, 1.7 assists in 21.3 minutes per game. With his 62 three-pointers
this season, Hood ranks fourth all-time in Jazz rookie three-pointers made.
Brooklyn’s Bojan Bogdanovic was named Eastern Conference Rookie of the
Month. Other nominees for the Eastern and Western Conference Rookies of the
Month were the Los Angeles Lakers’ Jordan Clarkson, Minnesota’s Andrew
Wiggins and Zach LaVine, New York’s Langston Galloway, Orlando’s Elfrid
Payton and Philadelphia’s Nerlens Noel.
