Top John Collins News

  • Clippers' John Collins: Out against Knicks

    Collins (neck) is out for Monday's game against the Knicks, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

    Collins will miss a fifth straight game due to a neck injury. His timetable for return remains unclear at this point. His next opportunity to suit up comes Wednesday against the Timberwolves.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Will miss two-game road trip

    Collins (neck) won't travel with the Clippers for their upcoming two-game road trip, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    This news means that Collins will miss Friday's game in San Antonio and Saturday's game in Memphis, and while he'll be re-evaluated when the team returns to Los Angeles, his timetable remains unclear. Managers currently fighting through the playoffs may need to consider dropping Collins, who will miss all four of the Clippers' games during Week 19.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Remaining out for Wednesday

    Collins (neck) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pacers, Joey Linn of SI.com reports.

    Collins will miss his second straight game due to a neck injury that he suffered during Sunday's matchup against the Pelicans. Kobe Sanders drew the start in Collins' stead Monday and will be a candidate to do so again Wednesday.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Out Monday with neck injury

    Collins won't play in Monday's game against the Warriors due to neck soreness, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

    Collins appeared to injure his right arm late in Sunday's 137-117 win over the Pelicans, but his exit was apparently the result of a sore neck, which had kept him out for the Clippers' previous two contests. The severity of the latest recurrence of the neck issue isn't yet known, but Collins will sit out the second leg of the back-to-back set. Darius Garland (toe) is set to make his Clippers debut Monday and could end up absorbing most of Collins' minutes while sliding into the starting lineup.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Exits early Sunday

    Collins left Sunday's 137-117 win over the Pelicans with 4:56 remaining in the fourth quarter and didn't return due to an apparent right arm injury, NBA writer Justin Russo reports. He finished the contest with 15 points (5-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, two steals and one assist in 24 minutes.

    Back in action after missing the previous two games due to a head laceration and sore neck, Collins left Sunday's contest after he appeared to collide with a Pelicans player. The Clippers didn't provide any information on the nature or severity of his injury, so an update on Collins' status may not be available until the team releases its next injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Warriors. If Collins ends up being sidelined for the second leg of the back-to-back set, the Clippers could simply distribute most of his minutes to Darius Garland (toe), who is slated to make his team debut Monday.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Cleared to play Sunday

    Collins (head/neck) is available for Sunday's game against the Pelicans, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

    Collins will shake off his questionable tag and return from a two-game absence due to a head laceration and neck soreness. Over nine February appearances, the forward averaged 15.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.0 three-pointers in 29.3 minutes per contest. His return will leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Nicolas Batum and Kobe Sanders.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Could return Sunday

    Collins (head/neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Pelicans, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

    Collins has missed the Clippers' last two games due to a head laceration and neck soreness, but the veteran forward has a chance to make his return for the front end of the team's back-to-back set Sunday. Kobe Sanders and Jordan Miller would continue to operate in elevated roles if one or both of Collins and Kawhi Leonard (ankle/illness) are unable to play. Collins averaged 15.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.0 threes over 29.3 minutes per game in February.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Won't play Thursday

    Collins (neck/head) won't play in Thursday's game against Minnesota, per Law Murray of The Athletic.

    Collins is out for a second consecutive contest due to a head laceration and neck soreness. Sunday's tilt against the Pelicans marks the 28-year-old power forward's next chance to suit up. With Kawhi Leonard (ankle) also sidelined, Jordan Miller and Kobe Sanders appear to be worth streaming in most fantasy formats in a pinch.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Questionable for Thursday

    Collins (head/neck) is questionable for Thursday's game versus the Timberwolves, Janis Carr of The Orange County Register reports.

    Collins was able to get through Wednesday's practice, so the questionable tag is encouraging. If he's cleared to return, Kobe Sanders would likely return to the second unit.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Practices Wednesday

    Collins (head/neck) practiced Wednesday, but his status for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves has not yet been determined, Janis Carr of The Orange County Register reports.

    Collins getting through practice is an encouraging sign, but for now, he should be viewed as questionable for Thursday's game. If he's cleared to return, Kobe Sanders would likely head back to the second unit and Nicolas Batum could lose some minutes.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Out Sunday with sore neck

    Collins has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Magic due to a head laceration and neck soreness.

    Though Collins will have to miss at least one game after exiting Friday's 125-122 loss to the Clippers in the second quarter, he at least appears to have avoided a concussion after taking a hard fall to the court. After the game, head coach Tyronn Lue told Mark Medina of TheSportingTribune.com that Collins needed some stitches to seal a wound near his left eye, and the big man also apparently suffered a sore neck. With Collins sidelined for Sunday's contest, supporting players like Nicolas Batum and Jordan Miller could have higher minutes floors, and rookie Kobe Sanders could resurface in Lue's nine-man rotation.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Exits early Friday

    Collins (head) won't return to Friday's game against the Lakers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports. He finished with 12 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and one steal across 16 minutes.

    Late in the second quarter, Collins went up to retrieve a lob pass but was fouled and ended up hitting his head on the floor. He was initially considered questionable to return but never checked back in. The big man's next opportunity to play will come Sunday against the Magic. If Collins is forced to miss additional time, Nicolas Batum and Bennedict Mathurin would likely see increased minutes, while Kobe Sanders could re-enter the rotation.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Questionable to return

    Collins (head) is listed as questionable to return after exiting Friday's game against the Lakers in the second quarter, per Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com.

    Collins went up for a lob and hit his head on the floor after being fouled. If he is unable to return, Nicolas Batum and Kobe Sanders are expected to see increased minutes.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Exits to locker room

    Collins exited to the locker room in the second quarter of Friday's game against the Lakers and is being evaluated for a head injury, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

    Collins went up for a lob pass but was fouled and ended up hitting his head on the floor. If he's unable to return, he'll finish with 12 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and one steal across 16 minutes. Nicolas Batum and Kobe Sanders would likely see increased minutes if Collins isn't cleared to check back in.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Records third double-double

    Collins recorded 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), 12 rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal across 32 minutes during Thursday's 115-114 win over Denver.

    Collins' rebound numbers have prevented him from reaching the double-double milestone consistently this season. His current 2025-26 average of 5.2 rebounds per game marks his lowest in the category by a wide margin. There's a chance that Ivica Zubac's departure could give his results a slight boost, but Brook Lopez and Derrick Jones have fared well off the glass and could hinder Collins' chance for improvement.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Modest effort Wednesday

    Collins finished with 12 points (6-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist and one steal across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 105-102 win over the Rockets.

    Despite Wednesday's pedestrian showing, Collins has really turned it around overall after a rocky start to his Clippers tenure. Over 20 contests since the start of the new year, Collins has averaged 16.0 points, 5.7 rebounds, 0.9 assists and 2.0 three-pointers in 29.8 minutes per game while shooting a blistering 54.2 percent from beyond the arc.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Delivers 22 points in Friday's win

    Collins logged 22 points (8-12 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 34 minutes during Friday's 114-111 win over the Kings.

    The 28-year-old big continues to be a reliable contributor for the Clippers. Collins has scored in double digits in 10 straight games since returning in mid-January from a minor groin injury, averaging 16.6 points, 5.2 boards, 1.9 threes and 1.3 assists in 28.4 minutes over that stretch while shooting 62.5 percent from the floor and 48.7 percent from beyond the arc. With Ivica Zubac (ankle) now in Indiana and James Harden (trade pending) in Cleveland, Collins' usage could be on the upswing.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Effective despite blowout

    Collins notched 19 points (8-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and seven rebounds across 27 minutes during Wednesday's 124-91 loss to Cleveland.

    Collins was impressive on the offensive end even though his team was out of this one early. He's hitting at a clip of 62.0 percent from the field and 47.4 percent from three over his last nine appearances, averaging 16.0 points during this hot stretch.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Strong showing from downtown

    Collins racked up 18 points (7-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 0-1 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 31 minutes during Friday's 122-109 loss to the Nuggets.

    The 28-year-old big continues to impress from three-point range. Collins has drained at least one trey in 12 straight games dating back to Jan. 3, averaging 16.3 points, 4.5 boards, 2.7 threes, 1.1 blocks, 0.9 assists and 0.8 steals over that stretch while shooting a blistering 65.3 percent from the floor and 59.3 percent from beyond the arc.

  • Clippers' John Collins: Posts 18 points in blowout win

    Collins supplied 18 points (7-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and three steals in 26 minutes during Sunday's 126-89 victory over the Nets.

    Collins has turned in four consecutive double-digit scoring performances since returning from a two-game absence. The Clippers' recent climb in the standings is a result of added support for James Harden and Kawhi Leonard from players like Collins, who struggled with his role earlier in the season. He's played much more consistently lately, posting three of his highest point totals during January.
