Top Zach Collins News

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Efficient in limited run Thursday

    Collins totaled six points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and three rebounds over eight minutes during Thursday's 128-116 victory over the Kings.

    Collins received fewer than 10 minutes of playing time for the first time since logging a DNP via a coach's decision Feb. 12. The big man will likely continue to see fewer minutes as long as Nikola Vucevic and Patrick Williams aren't restricted.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Nears double-double off bench

    Collins recorded nine points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal across 25 minutes during Thursday's 116-110 victory over the Nets.

    Collins didn't have a lot of touches on offense or a ton of minutes overall, but he made the most of his time out there. Collins not only finished one rebound and one point away from posting a double-double, but he also outplayed Nikola Vucevic, who was returning to the first unit, by a sizable margin. That said, Collins should continue to play off the bench in the foreseeable future, so his fantasy upside should remain fairly limited.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Retreating to bench Thursday

    Collins is not in the Bulls' starting lineup against the Nets on Thursday.

    Collins will cede his place in the starting lineup to Nikola Vucevic on Thursday. Collins started in the Bulls' last eight games, and over that span he averaged 14.9 points on 58.7 percent shooting (including 37.0 percent from three on 3.4 3PA/G), 9.8 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.0 steals over 28.8 minutes per contest.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Plays well in win

    Collins contributed seven points (3-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), nine rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal across 23 minutes during Monday's 121-103 victory over the Pacers.

    Nikola Vucevic came off the bench during his return from a seven-game absence streak due to a calf injury, but head coach Billy Donovan said after the game that he would "eventually" return to the starting lineup, K.C. Johnson of Chicago Sports Network reports. That's bad news for Collins' value, but his fantasy managers may want to hold him until that actually happens. Over his last eight outings, Collins has averaged 14.9 points, 9.8 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.3 three-pointers.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Strong double-double

    Collins closed with 18 points (6-11 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 15 rebounds and three assists in 32 minutes during Saturday's 114-109 victory over the Heat.

    Collins has started in the Bulls' last seven games due to the injury issues Nikola Vucevic (calf) is going through, and the veteran big man has been delivering solid results. Collins has recorded four double-doubles over his last six appearances, and this one was particularly impressive since he had to deal with Bam Adebayo on both ends of the court. There are no signs of Vucevic being ready to return in the near future, and until that happens, Collins should remain in the starting five.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Battles foul trouble in win

    Collins accumulated three points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds and one block in 12 minutes before fouling out of Thursday's 125-123 victory over the Magic.

    Collins was limited to just 12 minutes as a result of fouling out, bringing to an end his recent productive stretch. While this was a night to forget, Collins has been playing his best basketball of the season, slotting in as the starting center with Nikola Vucevic sidelined with a calf injury. Until Vucevic is cleared to return, expect to see Collins running with the starters.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Double-double against Cleveland

    Collins closed with 20 points (10-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt), 12 rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals in 28 minutes during Tuesday's 139-117 loss to the Cavaliers.

    Making his fifth straight start in place of Nikola Vucevic (calf), Collins stayed productive with his third double-double of the season -- all of which have come while Chicago's top center has been on the shelf. During his starting run, Collins has averaged 18.2 points, 10.4 boards, 3.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.0 threes while shooting 59.3 percent from the floor, but he could be set to slide back to the bench with Vucevic eyeing a return to the lineup Thursday in Orlando.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Stays hot in win

    Collins dropped 15 points (5-10 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 13 boards, five assists, one steal and one block in 40 minutes during Friday's 125-115 overtime win against the Raptors.

    In the absence of Nikola Vucevic (calf), Collins has continued to dominate the big-man minutes in head coach Billy Donovan's rotation. He once again made the most of his newfound role with his second straight double-double against the Raptors and is now averaging 18.3 points and 11.7 boards on 55.9 percent shooting in his past three outings. So long as Vucevic stays on the sidelines, Collins will remain a viable fantasy option. The former has already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers, making Collins an attractive waiver wire pickup if he hasn't already been snatched up.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Monster game against Clippers

    Collins supplied 21 points (8-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 17 rebounds, six assists and two steals in 38 minutes during Wednesday's 122-117 loss to the Clippers.

    Collins started for a second straight game, moving into the first unit while Jalen Smith (concussion) and Nikola Vucevic (calf) are sidelined. Collins reeled in a career-high 17 rebounds and fell one assist short of matching his career high. It's unclear how long the pair of big men will be out, but Collins has filled in nicely.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Available to face LAC

    Collins (shin) will play in Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

    Collins was initially listed as probable due to a right shin injury, and he'll be in uniform for Wednesday's contest. With Jalen Smith (concussion) and Nikola Vucevic (calf) sidelined, Collins should draw a second straight start.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Probable against Clippers

    Collins (shin) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

    Collins is managing right shin pain, but he's likely to be available Wednesday. The veteran big man is primed for an increase in fantasy value as well, considering Nikola Vucevic (calf) is doubtful and Jalen Smith (concussion) is out. Collins posted a full stat line with 19 points, five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 28 minutes during Monday's start against the 76ers.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Puts up 19 points as starter

    Collins produced 19 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during Monday's 142-110 win over the 76ers.

    Nikola Vucevic missed this game with a calf strain and is presumably day-to-day -- he was initially probable before being ruled out. Collins has been productive in the past when the minutes are there, making him a potential pickup in fantasy formats if Vucevic is forced to miss additional time. Through four games with Chicago, Collins holds averages of 8.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.8 steals in 18.3 minutes.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Starting vs. 76ers

    Collins is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the 76ers, Chuck Swirsky of the Bulls Radio Network reports.

    Collins will get the nod in the first unit since Nikola Vucevic will miss this contest due to a calf injury. Collins hasn't started a game since Dec. 6, when he played for the Spurs. He's averaging 5.0 points and 5.3 rebounds per game in his first three outings with Chicago.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Grabs 10 boards Saturday

    Collins posted eight points (4-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), 10 rebounds and one assist across 18 minutes during Saturday's 121-117 loss to the Suns.

    Collins finished Saturday's game as the Bulls' second leading scorer behind Nikola Vucevic (10) and third among Chicago's reserves in scoring. It was the first game that Collins served as the primary backup at center behind Vucevic due to the absence of Jalen Smith (concussion). Collins will continue to see extended playing time off the bench for as long as Smith remains sidelined.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Logs 12 minutes in team debut

    Collins logged five points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and five rebounds over 12 minutes during Tuesday's 132-92 loss to the Pistons.

    Collins made his season debut for the Bulls, playing a limited role off the bench. The Bulls were embarrassed in this one, meaning their rotation was very hard to get a read on. At this point, it is unclear whether Collins will feature on a nightly basis or simply be used as an emergency piece, as required.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Available vs. Golden State

    Collins (recently traded) has been cleared to play in Saturday's game against the Warriors.

    Collins was shipped to the Bulls ahead of the NBA trade deadline earlier this week and will make his debut Saturday for Chicago. In 36 games with the Spurs this season, the veteran big man averaged 4.6 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game, shooting 46.2 percent from the floor.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Not playing until Saturday

    Head coach Billy Donovan said Tuesday that Collins (not injury related), Tre Jones and Kevin Huerter will not play until Saturday against the Warriors at the earliest, Cody Westerlund of 670TheScore.com reports.

    Collins has not made his Bulls' debut since being traded from the Spurs on Sunday. He won't play in Chicago's next two games, and if he's not traded before Thursday's deadline, he should be available to take the floor Saturday. Collins played just 7.2 minutes per game with the Spurs since Dec. 29 while serving in a deep rotational role at center. If he sticks around in Chicago, Collins' playing time will be directly impacted by whether Nikola Vucevic is still around after the trade deadline.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Chicago debut won't happen Tuesday

    Collins won't make his Bulls debut Tuesday against the Heat, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

    Collins was among the many players involved in the three-team trade between the Bulls, Spurs and Kings. Unfortunately, the veteran big man's debut with Chicago won't happen Tuesday against the Heat, and there's a chance he could get flipped elsewhere in another deal before the Thursday afternoon trade deadline, putting his status for Wednesday's game in Minnesota in jeopardy.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Could make Bulls debut Tuesday

    Collins (recently traded) is not listed on the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Heat.

    Collins was involved in Sunday's three-team trade that was centered around De'Aaron Fox going to the Spurs and Zach LaVine heading to the Kings. Collins, Kevin Huerter and Tre Jones were sent to Chicago as part of the transaction, and all three may make their Bulls debut Tuesday. Collins' playing outlook in Chicago currently looks about the same as it did in San Antonio, but he could move into a more meaningful role in the rotation if Nikola Vucevic is moved prior to Thursday's trade deadline.

  • Bulls' Zach Collins: Bound for Chicago

    The Bulls acquired Collins, guards Kevin Huerter and Tre Jones and a 2025 first-round pick Sunday in a three-team deal involving the Spurs and Kings, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

    Sacramento will receive guards Zach LaVine (personal) and Sidy Cissoko, first-round picks in 2025, 2027 and 2031, and three second-round picks, while San Antonio will receive guards De'Aaron Fox and Jordan McLaughlin. Collins had opened the season as the top backup to starting center Victor Wembanyama, but he had largely been out of the rotation since mid-December. While Collins' outlook for playing time in Chicago won't be much more favorable at the moment, he could move into the rotation if the Bulls move starting center Nikola Vucevic elsewhere prior to Thursday's trade deadline.
