John Collins's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (face) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Thunder. Collins got hurt and had to exit Monday's clash with Minnesota after Anthony Edwards dunked on him. He passed the concussion protocol but is on the injury report with a facial contusion. Walker Kessler could be set for a big night as Collins' replacement in the starting five. OKC are outstanding defensively but sit only 27th in the league in rebounding rate. Only Washington and Charlotte give up more rebounds to centers than the Thunder.

Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins avoided a concussion after getting injured on Monday versus Minnesota, but he has suffered a head contusion. Collins made an early exit from Monday's contest after getting hurt on a posterizing dunk by Anthony Edwards. The injury cut short an effective night at the office, as Collins posted 11 points on 5-for-9 shooting and had six rebounds in 20 minutes. Collins needs to shake off the injury by Wednesday if he doesn't want to miss any games. Walker Kessler would be in line for a start if Collins can't play. The 22-year-old has had a tough sophomore season but could really shine on Wednesday against an Oklahoma City team that struggles on the glass.

Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (rest) is set to return to the lineup on Monday versus Minnesota, as he isn't listed on the injury report. Utah rested its starting center on Saturday against the Timberwolves as the team completed a back-to-back set. Collins has performed well lately, recording eight of his 22 double-doubles this season since the start of February. He's averaging 17.8 points, 9.3 boards, and 2.0 blocks for the month. Collins faces a tough matchup on Monday, but Rudy Gobert (ribs) could again join Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) on the sidelines as he did at the weekend, which would give the Jazz man a chance to shine.

Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (rest) won't be in the lineup on Saturday against Minnesota. After playing in every game since Dec. 18, Collins will sit out the matchup for rest purposes. With Lauri Markkanen (quadriceps) also out, we should see plenty of Brice Sensabaugh and Taylor Hendricks against the Timberwolves, with a sprinkle of Walker Kessler in between. Sensabaugh has been the most productive player of the three lately, although fantasy managers should tame their expectations, as it's meeting with the NBA's most efficient defense on Saturday.
