John Collins will not be traded
After weeks upon weeks of speculation, it was somewhat surprising that the Atlanta Hawks elected not to trade John Collins at the NBA Draft. Perhaps they didn’t find the right offer or maybe they had a change of mind. Either way, he’s still a Hawk.
And I don’t really believe that’s going to change anytime soon. If the Hawks didn’t trade him at the draft, I have a hard time seeing them doing so in the offseason for invisible assets – or future draft picks.
Collins is still a really good player and is still growing into his potential. Perhaps the Hawks give this duo one more shot and see how it plays out this season.
