The Jazz waived Hood-Schifino on Thursday, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. The Jazz are also waiving Josh Richardson, but they will hold onto KJ Martin. Hood-Schifino, who made just two appearances this season due to a left hamstring injury, could draw interest on the open market for teams looking to give the No. 17 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft another chance.

Jalen Hood-Schifino Latest News
Waived by Utah
The Jazz waived Hood-Schifino on Thursday, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. The Jazz are also waiving Josh Richardson, but they will hold onto KJ Martin. Hood-Schifino, who made just two appearances this season due to a left hamstring injury, could draw interest on the open market for teams looking to give the No. 17 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft another chance.
Won't go Wednesday
Hood-Schifino (not with team) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Golden State. Hood-Schifino will remain on the shelf after the Jazz acquired him via trade Saturday. The 21-year-old hasn't played at the NBA level since Dec. 1 due to a left hamstring strain, though the fact he is not listed on the injury report with the hamstring injury suggests that he could return to action as soon as Friday's matchup against the Suns.
Not playing Monday vs. Indiana
Hood-Schifino (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pacers, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. Hood-Schifino was part of Saturday night's three-team trade between the Mavericks, Lakers and Jazz, which saw him get sent to Utah along with two 2025 second-round picks. Hood-Schifino has been out of action since early December due to a left hamstring strain, but once he's cleared to return he should have a shot at earning meaningful minutes in the Jazz's rotation. His next opportunity to play will be Wednesday against the Warriors.
Traded to Utah
The Jazz acquired Hood-Schifino (hamstring) and two 2025 second-round picks on Saturday as part of a three-team deal involving the Lakers and Mavericks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports. The Lakers acquired Luka Doncic (calf), Maxi Kleber (foot) and Markieff Morris from the Mavericks, while Dallas acquired Anthony Davis (abdomen), Max Christie and a 2029 first-round pick from Los Angeles. Utah didn't give up anything in the deal and will receive a pair of second-round picks as a result of its willingness to take on the money remaining on the rookie contract of Hood-Schifino, who is scheduled for free agency this offseason after the Lakers declined his third-year option for 2025-26 in October. The 21-year-old guard will theoretically have a clearer path to playing time with a rebuilding Jazz squad than he did with the Lakers, but Utah is still unlikely to view Hood-Schifino as a key piece after he did little to distinguish himself as an NBA-caliber player through his first one-plus seasons in the league. Before getting on the court with Utah or its G League affiliate, Hood-Schifino will first have to recover from the left hamstring strain that has kept him out of action since early December.
Not playing Saturday vs. New York
Hood-Schifino (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Knicks, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports. Hood-Schifino has not played since Dec. 1 due to a left hamstring strain. He appeared in just three games during the 2024-25 regular season. There is no clear timeline for his return, though his next opportunity to play will be Tuesday against the Clippers.
Ruled out against Washington
Hood-Schifino (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Wizards, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports. Hood-Schifino will miss a 26th straight game Thursday for the Lakers as he continues to deal with a left hamstring strain. The second-year guard hasn't made an impact on the floor when made available, so this has little impact from a fantasy perspective.
Another absence coming
Hood-Schifino (hamstring) will not play Tuesday against the 76ers, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports. Hood-Schifino has appeared in just three games all season, with one coming at the G League level. He hasn't seen action for the Lakers since Dec. 1 and remains without a clear timeline to return from a left hamstring strain, but the second-year guard won't be part of the rotation whenever he's cleared to play.
Remains out for Monday
Hood-Schifino (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup versus the Hornets, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports. Hood-Schifino hasn't played since Dec. 1, and there is no definitive timetable for his return to game action. He can be considered doubtful at best for the second leg of the club's back-to-back set in Tuesday's game against the 76ers.
Remains on shelf for Saturday
Hood-Schifino (hamstring) is out for Saturday's game against the Warriors, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports. Hood-Schifino remains without a definitive timetable for a return to Los Angeles' lineup with a hamstring strain. He can be tentatively labeled doubtful ahead of Monday's matchup with Charlotte.
