1 Month Dallas Mavericks Darren Collison reiterated that he views himself as a starting point guard. Collison gave a half-hearted endorsement when asked if he wanted to return to Dallas as a restricted free agent. When asked if he'd return in a reserve role, he offered, "I'm not going to say no, because I definitely experienced it, and I'm capable of playing off the bench. At the same time, I just know who I am as a person and as a player. I'm capable of playing for any team as a starter." His free agency will be one of the more interesting offseason storylines to monitor. | 1 Month Dallas Mavericks Darren Collison scored 18 points on 7-of-10 shooting (no threes) with one rebound, eight assists, one steal and one block in 30 minutes off the bench on Friday. Collison has nudged ahead of Mike James (eight points, two assists, 18 minutes) in the position battle and is worth a look if you need point guard help. | 2 Months Dallas Mavericks Darren Collison shot 5-of-12 from the field for 11 points with one board, six assists, three steals and one 3-pointer against the Lakers on Tuesday. He played 29 minutes in the loss and looked better than starter Mike James (no points, two boards, four assists and two steals in 19 minutes). This is a full-blown timeshare and neither player will be a top-three scoring option for Dallas, so neither guy is worth owning in standard leagues. | 2 Months Dallas Mavericks Darren Collison scored eight points off the bench with one board, three assists and one steal in 23 minutes against the Bulls on Saturday. Dallas' bench was big in the win and Collison's transition game was helpful. Although, he and Mike James (five points, seven assists and two turnovers) are in a true timeshare and standard leagues owners should probably look elsewhere for help on the waiver wire. | 2 Months Dallas Mavericks Darren Collison, as usual, came off the bench behind Mike James and had 13 points, four assists, a steal, a block and a 3-pointer on 3-of-6 shooting in 25 minutes on Tuesday. Collison owners caught a break when Mike James fouled out of this one, or Collison's line wouldn't have been quite as nice. He's barely clinging to value with James starting and is far from a must-start in fantasy as long as he's coming off the bench. | 2 Months Dallas Mavericks The Mavericks won their second straight game behind 19 points and five assists from Mike James, who knocked down 7-of-10 shots with three 3-pointers in 32 minutes. The win pulled Dallas even with Utah at 34-36, though both teams still trail the eighth-place Lakers by 1.5 games. Rick Carlisle has an affinity for James' veteran leadership and there are no indications that Darren Collison (13 points, five assists) will retake the starting PG job this season. | 2 Months Dallas Mavericks Darren Collison, who blew up for 24 points and five assists on 10-of-14 shooting on Monday, had just eight points and three assists in 20 minutes of Wednesday's loss to the Nets. This was the Collison we've seen a lot more often recently, as the one with the big line on Monday was more of a fluke. As long as Collison is coming off the bench behind Mike James for Dallas, he's going to be tough to start in fantasy lineups. | |
