Collins is out for Friday's game against the Raptors due to a left ankle sprain.

EDGE Analysis

Collins provided 28 points (12-30 FG, 2-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and two steals over 34 minutes during Monday's 114-108 loss to Boston, and the veteran forward will be sidelined for this clash. It remains to be seen if he'll be avaliable for the upcoming back-to-back set against the Timberwolves and Bulls on Sunday and Monday, respectively.

Collins provided 28 points (12-30 FG, 2-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and two steals over 34 minutes during Monday's 114-108 loss to Boston.

EDGE Analysis

The Jazz turned out to be more competitive than expected in this tight loss to Boston, and Collins had a strong showing as a scoring weapon even if he needed 30 shots to score 28 points. The veteran forward, who was returning to the lineup following a five-game absence due to a back injury, should be one of Utah's go-to players on offense going forward, although given the Jazz's recent resting patterns, it's unclear if he'll be available regularly. It wouldn't be surprising if he sits Wednesday's game against Memphis due to injury management.

Collins (back) is available for Monday's game against the Celtics.

EDGE Analysis

Collins has missed eight of the Jazz's last nine games due to low back injury management, but the veteran forward has been cleared to play Monday. He has played in just 12 games since the beginning of January, and over those outings he has averaged 20.7 points on 54.8 percent shooting, 8.0 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.5 blocks over 31.5 minutes per game.

Collins (back) is questionable for Monday's game against the Celtics.

EDGE Analysis

While Collins is in danger of missing a sixth straight game, his questionable tag is a sign of progress, as he's previously been deemed doubtful or ruled out on Utah's initial injury reports. KJ Martin has been starting at power forward in Collins' absence.

Collins (back) won't play in Sunday's game versus the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

Collins' absence streak will extend to five games Sunday due to lower back injury management. KJ Martin will likely continue to start in his absence. Collins' next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Boston.

Collins (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Raptors, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.

Collins (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Wizards, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Collins is set to be out of action for the sixth time in seven games due to lower back injury management, and his next chance to see the floor is Friday against the Raptors. The Jazz will be shorthanded Wednesday due to the absences of Collins, Walker Kessler (rest), Lauri Markkanen (back), Jordan Clarkson (foot) and Collin Sexton (ankle). Expect the likes of KJ Martin, Brice Sensabaugh, Kyle Filipowski, Cody Williams, Johnny Juzang and others to see a heavy workload against Washington.

Collins (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

Collins will be sidelined for the fourth time in five games due to lower back injury management, and how he responds to the injury over the next couple of days will determine whether he'll be given the green light to play against the Wizards on Wednesday. KJ Martin and Brice Sensabaugh are candidates to enter the Jazz's starting lineup for Monday's game due to Collins' absence.

Collins (back) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

Collins made his return from a three-game absence Friday, posting 29 points (12-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one block in 27 minutes during a win over Minnesota, but he was back in street clothes Sunday and will likely miss the second half of Utah's back-to-back set as well. With Lauri Markkanen (back) already out, KJ Martin, Kyle Filipowski and Brice Sensabaugh are candidates for increased roles again, though Utah is expected to have Walker Kessler (rest) available Monday.

With Lauri Markkanen (back/rest) also out, KJ Martin, Kyle Filipowski and Brice Sensabaugh are all candidates for increased roles.
