Jazz's Rodney Hood: Will start Saturday

Hood (hamstring) will start at shooting guard in Saturday's game against the Nuggets, Tony Jones of the Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Analysis:

Hood sat out Thursday's loss to the Heat with the hamstring injury, but it looks like he'll be cleared to take on a full workload in his return from a one-game absence. Hood will look to pick up where he left off Tuesday against the Rockets, when he scored 19 points in 20 minutes before departing with the hamstring issue.
