John Collins staying in Atlanta could be for the best

John Collins has become a questionable fit at times for the Atlanta Hawks over the past season. The Hawks’ front office may have been looking for a trade partner for Collins since the middle of last season as rumors have continued to swirl into this offseason. Although the former Wake Forest forward has improved every season of his career, finding a new team for him could be forced.

Collins had his best season statistical season in the 2019-2020, as he averaged 21.6 points per game with shooting splits of 58.3/40.1/80 from the field. Throughout his career, Collin’s stats have stayed reasonably similar on a per shot basis.
