In 2023, Hood-Schifino entered the NBA after his first-year season in Indiana. During his NCAA Run, Hood-Schifino all started 32 games he played. The young striking was on average 14 points, four rebounds and four assists at 42 percent shooting from the field.
The Lakers called on Hood-Schifino to take him with their 17th general choice. During his Rookie season, Hood-Schifino appeared in 21 games for the Lakers. Hood-Schifino saw the court only five minutes per match and on average two points. He shot 22 percent.
This season, Hood-Schifino struggled to crack the rotation again. He appeared in just two games, on average seven minutes of playing time.
At the Handelsdeadline of 2025, Hood-Schifino was moved to the Utah Jazz as part of the Blockbuster deal, including Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis. Hood-Schifino was only in jazz for five days before he was deviated from.
With the Sixers filled with all their two-way slots, they should make a follow-up movement to officially acquire Hood-Schifino.
