Zags in Summer League: Zach Collins plays through a broken nose

Zach Collins is back in his hometown for his second stint at the NBA Summer League as he gears up for a second season with the Portland Trail Blazers. The Las Vegas native took the floor with a facemask after he suffered a broken nose in practice on Tuesday, which likely bothered him as he shot only 2-12 from the field and finished with 5 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 blocks. I wouldn’t be too concerned about those numbers, however, as Collins showed he can play in the league last year and is likely just uncomfortable playing with the facemask.
