STAR UNDERDOG
NBA ROLE: SKILLED, EXPLOSIVE 4/5
A 1% athlete at his position, John Collins is a supreme leaper w/ quick feet & good hands; tremendous finisher over the top (power dunker!); great PnR partner, reliable scorer following dump-offs, prime candidate for oops & short Js around the basket; rapidly growing on offensively - needs to continue working on creating own offense in the paint, finding shooters & cutters after attracting defenders; great rebounder, versatile defender, natural anticipation: switches well, can protect the rim; must cut down on fouling, converting own FT opps at a higher clip; has expanded outside game, confident shooting off pick & pops & spotting up; Collins forms an athletic, inside-out combo w/ Lauri Markkanen - can he help capture a playoff berth in 2025?
