Rodney Hood is a popular man around the NBA.

Twenty teams - two-thirds of the league - have inquired about the Utah Jazz shooting guard's availability ahead of Thursday's trade deadline, according to the New York Times' Marc Stein.

On Wednesday, the Salt Lake Tribune's Tony Jones reported that as many as 15 teams had made calls about Hood.

Given that Hood has publicly stated he has a "gut feeling" he will be traded Thursday, it makes sense that any interested team would be doing due diligence by talking to the Jazz.

The 25-year-old Hood is having his best statistical season but has still missed 15 games due to a leg injury. The Duke product has only played more than 59 games in a season once in his four-year career.
