Better Potential: Rodney Hood vs. Justice Winslow

[WayOfWade]

Winslow isn't playing to good as of late, but he is a defensive specialist and I think he'll get it together offensively as his career goes on. Hood is already there offensively and will only get better as his career goes on; however I'd say he's only decent defensively, nowhere near where Winslow is at the moment.

Winslow: 5.3 PPG, 4.6 RPG, 1.2 APG, .7 SPG, .4 BPG, 38.8 FG%, 23.9 3P%, 66.0 FT%
Hood: 13.1 PPG, 3.1 RPG, 2.6 APG, .9 SPG, .3 BPG, 40.7 FG%, 34.0 3P%, 87.4 FT%

Anyone got any defensive stats and maybe a link where to find them?

Thoughts? Who would you rather have on your team both now and for the long-haul?

Justise is a better defender, a lot better, he is keeping his counterpart to 40% from the field vs 47% for Rodney.

But offensively Rodney already has a skill that works for him, he can shot. Hasn't been great this year but I am going to blame it on the sophomore wall

I'd take Rodney because, you know what you get with him, can improve defensively and his shot will keep on improving. On the other hand Justise is younger but, I rather not have a offensive blackhole on my team, and there is no certainty the he'll ever be serviceable on that end.

All it would take for me to take Justise over Rodney, is that he becomes an average three point shooter tbh. Nothing more, he is already there defensively.

The way Hood played at the end of last year I thought he might eventually be the Jazz's 2nd best player behind Gobert but he's been really disappointing this year.

He's a streaky shooter at best like Hayward. He doesn't usually do much else besides score when he does do that. Inside the arc he's great but he's settling for 3's way too much. I think that's on the coaches though. They want everyone on the team taking open 3's and if I'm the other team I'm leaving him open from deep unless he starts hitting them and than it might not matter because he can shoot over most people with his size.

He's in the starting line-up over Burks because of his D and shooting too! He's not that young either for a 2nd year player. He looks like he could be another nice bench piece for them in the future anyway.

Winslow didn't impress me but he's young still.

I would take Gary Harris over both
