Clippers' John Collins: Drops 20 in Thursday's loss
John 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 Los Angeles 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
John 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 Los Angeles 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.

Clippers' John Collins: Drains four triples in loss

Clippers' John Collins: Another lackluster performance
John Collins had nine points (4-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, one block and one steal over 25 minutes during Thursday's 129-101 loss to the Magic.Collins continues to be rather disappointing from a fantasy perspective. On the year so far, the veteran forward has averaged 11.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 0.9 steals in 25.3 minutes per contest in 15 games. Collins could still be acclimating to his new surroundings during his first season with Los Angeles, and he's at least shooting a strong 50.4 percent from the field.

Clippers' John Collins: Benched down the stretch
John Collins recorded eight points (3-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two steals and three turnovers in 24 minutes during Friday's 133-127 double overtime win over Dallas.While Collins has been starting the past three games, he hasn't done much with the opportunity, posting meager averages of 6.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.0 blocks per game. Collins was benched down the stretch of this one and didn't make a single appearance during either overtime period, so it'll be interesting to see if he sticks as a starter for Sunday's game in Boston.

Clippers' John Collins: Starting Monday
John Collins will move into the starting lineup in Monday's game against the Hawks, Mark Medina of TheSportingTribune.com reports.Per Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com, Los Angeles Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue said that he'll be sticking with Collins in the starting lineup "for a while," so this is more than a matchup-based decision. Collins is coming off a 19-point performance, and he's capable of providing top-40 numbers when given the minutes, so it looks like he'll be rewarding those who stayed patient with him through the slow start.
