Rodney Hood (back) will not play on Tuesday for Portland

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Rodney Hood is out on Tuesday in the team's game against the Sacramento Kings.

What It Means:

Hood was considered probable entering game day, but it seems as though his back spasms got worse as tipoff approached. That's a worrisome sign for Hood, and the Blazers can only hope his absence is limited to a single game.

In nine games this season, Hood has averaged 10.6 points, 3.9 rebounds and 19.1 FanDuel points per game.
