4 years agoPortland Trail Blazers forward Rodney Hood (Achilles) mentioned that he has still yet to do any 5-on-5 workouts yet. However, Hood believes that he will be able to suit up on opening night. The season is less than a month away, so it's tough to imagine Hood being ready that quick. Derrick Jones Jr. is expect to start, while Carmelo Anthony should have a significant role off the bench. It doesn't sound like Hood is going to be a desirable fantasy option since he'll likely have to battle for playing time.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller
