The 11 Best NBA Performances From Last Week: The Brow Rises

9. Rodney Hood vs. Detroit Pistons

Last year, Rodney Hood had a breakout year with the Utah Jazz. This year, however, Hood has been forced to take a backseat to Gordon Hayward, George Hill and Rudy Gobert in terms of usage and offensive importance.

In the last week, we've seen flashes of last year's Hood, as he's scored at least 14 points in his last three games. The best of the three came against the Detroit Pistons Friday night.

In the contest, the Utah shooting guard scored 27 points on 10 for 14 shooting from the floor and 7 for 8 from beyond the arc. And he did his damage in just 28 minutes of play. That's efficiency, in the form of a 96.4% true shooting percentage and a 52.68 nERD.
