John Collins Back From One-Game Absence
2 years agoAtlanta Hawks forward/center John Collins (back) will return from a one-game absence Tuesday against Miami. He was rested Sunday versus Boston with lower back tightness. Collins took a significant step back in his play during the 2022-23 regular season, putting up the second-fewest points in his career and averaging a career-low 6.5 rebounds. Can he make up for it with a big performance in the play-in game? Collins had a miserable year from downtown but is shooting 52.6 percent from deep this month. One of his best games of the season was against Miami when Collins put up 23 points and 14 rebounds in a 106-98 loss on Nov. 27. He averaged 14.3 points and 5.0 rebounds overall in the matchup during the regular season.
