Two thirds of the league have come calling the Utah Jazz front office, asking for their fourth-year swingman Rodney Hood, according to Marc Stein of The New York Times.

The Jazz face a tough question with only hours remaining in the trade deadline — to keep Hood — despite his constant inconsistencies and allow him to become a restricted free agent in the summer, likely breaking out a bidding war for his services or parting ways with him and yielding a future pick that can potentially turn into a building block for this team.

Hood is averaging a career-best 16.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.7 assists per game this season. His last two performances come at the best time possible, fresh off a 30-point explosion against the New Orleans Pelicans, where he made 12-of-14 from the field, helping his team grab the win over their Western Conference foes.

Hood also dropped 18 points on the Memphis Grizzlies last night, helping opposing front offices to salivate over his scoring talents.

A capable, lanky lefty with good three-point acumen (career-high 38.9 percent for the season), Hood can prove to be a big asset for contenders looking for an extra shooter to catapult them to where they want to be.

General manager Dennis Lindsey is not likely to give him away, likely fishing for the best package in return for his services and one that convince him and the front office that making the deal is the way to go moving forward.

The development of Donovan Mitchell and Joe Ingles likely makes this a slightly easier decision, having pieces in place to fill his absence.
