While there are just five games remaining on the Hawks season and it seems like players with even the smallest of injuries are (appropriately) being ramped down, there is still one thing I am hoping to see.
Trae Young and John Collins have long led the team in usage but in very different forms. Young creates shots for himself and others. Collins’ assists per 36 minutes is up only slightly over last season. His usage is coming primarily from shots being created for him and shots he is creating for himself. It’s a bit surprising that a slightly higher percentage of Collins’ made shots this year have been assisted as compared to last year.
