Collison moved into the starting lineup Wednesday against the Suns, finishing with 13 points (6-10 FG, 1-2 FT), six assists, one rebound, and four turnovers over 32 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Collison replaced Ben McLemore, who was banished to the bench after providing just 4.3 points per game over the Kings' first four contests. Though McLemore was limited to just 14 minutes in Wednesday's game, Collison had already been outpacing him for playing time while coming off the bench, so his ascension into the starting lineup shouldn't result in a dramatic uptick in production. Over five games, Collison is averaging 14.6 points, 4.4 assists, 1.4 rebounds, and 0.6 steals over 30.4 minutes per contest.
