EDGE Analysis

Collins finished Saturday's game as the Bulls' second leading scorer behind Nikola Vucevic (10) and third among Chicago's reserves in scoring. It was the first game that Collins served as the primary backup at center behind Vucevic due to the absence of Jalen Smith (concussion). Collins will continue to see extended playing time off the bench for as long as Smith remains sidelined.
