John Collins

John Collins stuffed the stat sheet for the Clippers Saturday night, recording four steals, dishing out one assist, grabbing seven rebounds, blocking four shots, and scoring 25 points (9-14 FG, 5-8 3PT, 2-4 FT) in a 98-92 win over the Pistons.

Fantasy Impact

Collins continues a solid stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with two or more rebounds and 16 or more points in each of his last five games. The 28-year-old has provided fantasy managers with one of the more stable options as part of an inconsistent Los Angeles lineup, averaging 13.3 points and 5.0 rebounds per game to go along with an 18.4% usage rate so far this season.

John Collins scored 18 points (7-9 FG, 3-5 3PT, 1-1 FT) and grabbed ten rebounds in Wednesday night's 123-111 loss to the New York Knicks.

Fantasy Impact

Collins didn't take many shots on Wednesday night, but he was efficient from the field and was still able to put up 18 points against the Knicks. He also grabbed ten rebounds to leave him with a quality double-double, which should leave fantasy managers well pleased with his performance in this matchup.

John Collins scored 18 points (7-12 FG, 3-5 3PT, 1-3 FT) to go along with four rebounds, one assist and four blocks in the Clippers 103-102 win over the Warriors.

Fantasy Impact

Collins made a big impact as a defender in the win over Golden State. He has added at least 18 points in two straight games as he played a season-high 39 minutes in Monday's win.

John Collins returned to action in Tuesday’s rout of the Kings, contributing an efficient 16 points (6-of-9 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, one assist, one steal, three blocks, and two three-pointers in 22 minutes.

Fantasy Impact

After missing one game due to illness, Collins wasted no time getting back to work, continuing a stretch where he has provided third-round value in 8-category formats over the last two weeks. However, the minutes split is worth monitoring; Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) played 20 minutes off the bench in his second game back. While the blowout nature of this win likely skewed the rotation, the division of labor between Collins and Jones Jr. against tougher competition will be something for fantasy managers to track.

John Collins is listed as questionable for Tuesday’s game against the Kings.

Fantasy Impact

Collins is looking to avoid missing a second straight game. If he does, Nicolas Batum would likely see another spot start.
