Fantasy Impact:
Collins had been in the middle of trade talks since last season. Atlanta is largely unloading Collins’ three years, $78 million for some roster building flexibility and alignment with looming changes to salary cap. Collins joins Lauri Markkanen in the front court for a Utah team that was in the playoff mix for most of last year until late in the season. Onyeka Okongwu and Jalen Johnson should also now be in line for a bigger roles with Atlanta next season.
