• Clippers' John Collins: Drops 20 in Thursday's loss

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Collins accumulated 20 points (7-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 28 minutes during Thursday's 122-101 loss to Oklahoma City. The veteran big man reached 20 points in a game for only the second time this season, falling just short of the season-high 21 he scored against the Mavericks on Nov. 29. Collins is struggling to make a consistent impact in his first campaign with the Clippers. Through seven games in December, he's averaging 13.1 points, 3.6 boards, 1.4 assists and 1.1 steals in 27.1 minutes while shooting a woeful 19.2 percent (5-for-26) from beyond the arc.

• Clippers' John Collins: Struggles continue

  Collins closed with nine points (3-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two assists and two steals across 24 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 loss to the Rockets. Collins has had little impact on the Clippers this season. Even though he's been relegated to a secondary role on offense behind James Harden, Ivica Zubac and Kawhi Leonard, Collins has also failed to capitalize on the opportunities he's had as a starter. While there has been a slight uptick in his numbers of late, Collins has surpassed the 15-point mark just three times over his last 10 games. He's averaging 12.6 points and 4.5 boards per game over that span. On the season, Collins is averaging 12.1 points per game, which would be his lowest mark since his rookie year in 2017-18.

  Collins had 15 points (6-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 32 minutes during Wednesday's 115-92 victory over the Hawks. Collins has been key for the Clippers as of late, averaging 14.8 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.6 steals and 1.0 blocks across 32.0 minutes in his last five games. He figures to hold down the power forward spot until Derrick Jones (knee) returns.

• Clippers' John Collins: Posts season-high 21 points

  20D ago • By RotoWire

  Collins supplied 21 points (9-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and three blocks in 36 minutes during Saturday's 114-110 loss to Dallas. Collins missed only one shot in the narrow loss and contributed his best total of the season. Although his role was unclear earlier in the season, he's synced up well with Ivica Zubac in the frontcourt, providing size and adept defense to an interior that no longer needs extensive baseline work from Kawhi Leonard.

• Clippers' John Collins: Drains four triples in loss

  24D ago • By RotoWire

  Collins finished Tuesday's 135-118 loss to the Lakers with 18 points (6-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist across 34 minutes. Collins hit a season-high four three-pointers Tuesday, but his offensive output has been very inconsistent recently, averaging just 9.9 points on 42.3 percent from the field and 26.9 percent from three in his last nine games. With the slew of injuries the Clippers are currently dealing with, Collins may be asked to step up until the team gets healthier.
