Wood played five seasons of college basketball for Tulane, Portland, UNLV and Washington.

His career averages were 10.5 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists per contest while shooting 44.1% from the field and 40.4% from the three-point range in 152 games.

While Wood will likely begin the season in the G League, he has proven to be an elite three-point shooter, which could give him an excellent chance to land a two-way (or 10-day) contract.
