76ers' Jalen Hood-Schifino: Finishes season in significant role
Rotowire
Hood-Schifino posted seven points (2-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and three assists over 27 minutes during Sunday's 122-102 loss to the Bulls.
Significant injuries to Tyrese Maxey (finger), Jared McCain (knee) and Eric Gordon (wrist) allowed Hood-Schifino to play meaningful minutes down the stretch of the season. Over 13 games with Philadelphia, Hood-Schifino averaged 7.8 points, 2.8 assists, 2.0 rebounds, 0.5 blocks and 1.1 three-pointers in 23.2 minutes. Hood-Schifino has a two-way contract with Philadelphia, but he may not see as much playing time on a healthier 76ers team if he sticks around with the organization for next season.

76ers' Jalen Hood-Schifino: Notches 18 points
Rotowire
Hood-Schifino finished Sunday's 127-109 loss to the Raptors with 18 points (6-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal over 27 minutes.
The 76ers are likely to remain very shorthanded for the last couple of weeks of the season due to injuries and maintenance, making Hood-Schifino a player to monitor closely. He's been pretty quiet prior to this outburst, however, as he's averaging 9.3 points, 2.6 assists, 1.6 rebounds and 1.3 three-pointers on 41.0 percent shooting across eight March appearances.

76ers' Jalen Hood-Schifino: Iffy for Saturday
Rotowire
Hood-Schifino (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Heat.
Hood-Schifino is in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest due to an illness. The 21-year-old is eligible to play in seven of the club's last nine regular-season games while signed to a two-way contract. If Hood-Schifino remains on the shelf Saturday, Jared Butler and Lonnie Walker (neck) are candidates to see a bump in minutes.

Lakers' Jalen Hood-Schifino: Ruled out for Friday
Rotowire
Hood-Schifino has been ruled out for Friday's matchup against the Timberwolves due to a left hamstring strain, Khobi Price of The Orange County Register reports.
Hood-Schifino has been a mainstay on the injury report this season due to the hamstring injury and left groin soreness. The 21-year-old guard has averaged 7.0 minutes per game in only two regular-season appearances this year, so his absence shouldn't cause any waves in the rotation.
