When “John Collins” and “lobs” are in the same sentence, it’s usually some variation of the standout rim-runner Collins catching lobs from Trae Young and finishing around the rim.
But, this time it’s a little different: now that true center Clint Capela is a Hawk, Collins, sliding back to his natural position at power forward, can’t wait to connect with Capela on a lob.
“For me, having another dude that’s in the same level of athlete that I am, it’s going to be amazing to sort of know how to throw him open and know how he wants to catch the ball,” Collins said.
