Jalen Hood-Schifino

Hood-Schifino was selected by the Lakers with the 17th pick in the 2023 draft. He will arrive in Los Angeles as a highly touted lead guard, after delivering averages of 13.5 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.7 assists during his lone season at Indiana. While he has the size to compete right out of the gate, his struggles from the perimeter cannot be overlooked. During the 2023 Summer League, Hood-Schifino put up averages of 13.7 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.3 steals. Unfortunately, he shot just 34.0 percent from the floor, connecting on 0.8 three-pointers per contest. Given his inability to be a reliable off-ball threat, he will likely be limited to backup point guard minutes behind both D'Angelo Russell and Gabe Vincent.
