Rodney Hood starting for Jazz, Joe Ingles to the bench

Utah Jazz shooting guard Rodney Hood will start and Joe Ingles will move to the bench against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday.

What It Means:

Hood came off the bench with 20 minutes against the New Orleans Pelicans, but he should get minutes close to 30 tonight. The Jazz are going small with Joe Johnson in the starting lineup, so they're going to be thinner on the wing. Plus, Alec Burks figures to play some point guard. Hood is a decent pickup, but his bum knee makes him a risky player to own.

At just $4,300 on FanDuel NBA DFS, Hood is a good investment tonight for his upside against the high-paced Rockets. Our models project him for 32.4 minutes, 15.0 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.1 assists. That would be good for 23.2 FanDuel points if he can meet his projections.
