Collison scored 17 points (7-14 FG, 2-4 3P, 1-2 FT) with five assist, two rebounds and two steals in 32 minutes during Monday's loss to the Warriors. After a couple of rough performances in the middle of the month, Collison has now scored at least 15 points in three straight games, which perhaps not coincidentally is also when DeMarcus Cousins returned to the lineup. With Cousins again the focal point of opposition defenses, look for Collison to become a consistent asset once again.
