#2 Rodney Hood
Rodney Hood was selected with the 23rd overall pick in the 2014 NBA draft by the Utah Jazz, and Hood went on to spend four seasons with the team. The shooting guard was a regular fixture in the Jazz's starting five, and Hood amassed nearly 250 regular season appearances in Utah.
Despite Hood impressing with the Jazz, he was eventually traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers in a three-team trade that also involved the Sacramento Kings. The 26-year-old went on to play in the 2018 NBA Finals, and despite LeBron James' summer departure, Hood opted to sign a new one year contract in Cleveland.

Nevertheless, the Cavs have collapsed without James, and the organization is open to trading their entire roster. Hood has continued to impress despite the Cavaliers struggles, and the Brooklyn Nets should try to acquire the guard, before the panic of the trade deadline.
