Collins dropped 15 points (5-10 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 13 boards, five assists, one steal and one block in 40 minutes during Friday's 125-115 overtime win against the Raptors.

EDGE Analysis

In the absence of Nikola Vucevic (calf), Collins has continued to dominate the big-man minutes in head coach Billy Donovan's rotation. He once again made the most of his newfound role with his second straight double-double against the Raptors and is now averaging 18.3 points and 11.7 boards on 55.9 percent shooting in his past three outings. So long as Vucevic stays on the sidelines, Collins will remain a viable fantasy option. The former has already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers, making Collins an attractive waiver wire pickup if he hasn't already been snatched up.

Collins supplied 21 points (8-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 17 rebounds, six assists and two steals in 38 minutes during Wednesday's 122-117 loss to the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Collins started for a second straight game, moving into the first unit while Jalen Smith (concussion) and Nikola Vucevic (calf) are sidelined. Collins reeled in a career-high 17 rebounds and fell one assist short of matching his career high also. It's unclear how long the pair of big men will be out, but Collins has filled in nicely.

Collins (shin) will play in Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Collins was initially listed as probable due to a right shin injury, but he'll be in uniform for Wednesday's contest. With Jalen Smith (concussion) and Nikola Vucevic (calf) sidelined, Collins should draw a second straight start.

Collins (shin) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Collins is managing right shin pain, but he's likely to be available Wednesday. The veteran big man is primed for an increase in fantasy value as well, considering Nikola Vucevic (calf) is doubtful and Jalen Smith (concussion) is out. Collins posted a full stat line with 19 points, five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 28 minutes during Monday's start against the 76ers.

Collins produced 19 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during Monday's 142-110 win over the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

Nikola Vucevic missed this game with a calf strain and is presumably day-to-day -- he was initially probable before being ruled out. Collins has been productive in the past when the minutes are there, making him a potential pickup in fantasy formats if Vucevic is forced to miss additional time. Through four games with Chicago, Collins holds averages of 8.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.8 steals in 18.3 minutes.

Collins is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the 76ers, Chuck Swirsky of the Bulls Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Collins will get the nod in the first unit since Nikola Vucevic will miss this contest due to a calf injury. Collins hasn't started a game since Dec. 6, when he played for the Spurs. He's averaging 5.0 points and 5.3 rebounds per game in his first three outings with Chicago.

Collins posted eight points (4-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), 10 rebounds and one assist across 18 minutes during Saturday's 121-117 loss to the Suns.

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.

Collins logged five points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and five rebounds over 12 minutes during Tuesday's 132-92 loss to the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

Collins made his season debut for the Bulls, playing a limited role off the bench. The Bulls were embarrassed in this one, meaning their rotation was very hard to get a read on. At this point, it is unclear whether Collins will feature on a nightly basis or simply be used as an emergency piece, as required.

Collins (recently traded) has been cleared to play in Saturday's game against the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Collins was shipped to the Bulls ahead of the NBA trade deadline earlier this week and will make his debut Saturday for Chicago. In 36 games with the Spurs this season, the veteran big man averaged 4.6 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game, shooting 46.2 percent from the floor.

Head coach Billy Donovan said Tuesday that Collins (not injury related), Tre Jones and Kevin Huerter will not play until Saturday against the Warriors at the earliest, Cody Westerlund of 670TheScore.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Collins has not made his Bulls' debut since being traded from the Spurs on Sunday. He won't play in Chicago's next two games, and if he's not traded before Thursday's deadline, he should be available to take the floor Saturday. Collins played just 7.2 minutes per game with the Spurs since Dec. 29 while serving in a deep rotational role at center. If he sticks around in Chicago, Collins' playing time will be directly impacted by whether Nikola Vucevic is still around after the trade deadline.
