Lakers' Jalen Hood-Schifino: Solid performance against Hornets
Hood-Schifino totaled 15 points (5-10 FG, 2-2 3PT, 3-6 FT), five assists, three rebounds and a block over 31 minutes of Sunday's 93-75 Summer League win over the Hornets.
After going 0-for-9 from three in his first two outings, Hood-Schifino knocked down both of his three-point attempts in the Lakers' third Summer League Game. The 17th overall pick was also productive in pick-and-roll situations. Hood-Schifino has impressed for the Lakers thus far, and he figures to remain in a feature role for the team throughout the Summer League.

Lakers' Jalen Hood-Schifino: Struggles again from deep
Hood-Schifino corralled 20 points (8-17 FG, 0-4 3PT, 4-7 FT), four assists, three rebounds and a steal over 31 minutes of Wednesday's 109-99 Summer League loss to the Spurs.
After shooting 33 percent from beyond the arc last season at Indiana, Hood-Schifino has failed to connect on a three-pointer (0-for-9) through two Summer League games. However, he is averaging 17.5 points per game, which is second on the Lakers to only Max Christie. Despite his early shooting woes, expect the rookie to continue to command a feature role for the duration of Summer League.

Lakers' Jalen Hood-Schifino: Struggles with shot in pro debut
Hood-Schifino tallied 19 points (6-19 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 29 minutes during Monday's 107-90 Summer League loss to Miami.
Hood-Schifino was the No. 17 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, and he figures to be a focal point for the Lakers' Summer League squad over the next two weeks. In his lone collegiate campaign, the Indiana product was named Big Ten Freshman of the Year and Second-team All-Big Ten after averaging 13.5 points (42/33/78 shooting splits), 4.1 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 33.1 minutes per game.

Lakers' Jalen Hood-Schifino: Drafted by Lakers at No. 17
Hood-Schifino was selected by the Lakers with the No. 17 pick in the 2023 NBA Draft.
In his one-and-done year at Indiana, Hood-Schifino was named Big Ten Freshman of the Year and Second-team All-Big Ten behind 13.5 points on 42/33/78 shooting, 4.1 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 33.1 minutes per game. He's a big point guard at 6-foot-6, 217 pounds, with lead point guard skills -- great vision, passing and handling. Long-range shooting is a weak point. The Lakers' offseason plans are murky and full of options, so it remains to be seen how featured Hood-Schifino will be out of the gate. Regardless of the organization's free-agency plans, he should at least see some reserve guard minutes.
