« Perhaps the most underserved player in the league is him! » « 

These playoffs allow many young players to reveal themselves and prove their worth to the general public. One in particular shines despite the shadow made by his teammate… For Skip Bayless it’s simple, Atlanta has the most underrated player in the league!

No one expected the Hawks at this level, and even in the conference final, Trae Young and his teammates are having fun without denying their identity. The point guard released a historic new performance which LeBron James particularly liked, with in particular a striking highlight: an alley-oop against the board in full traffic. They are carefree, and that is arguably their greatest strength.

Receiving this amazing service was John Collins, who is increasingly establishing himself as a safe bet in this Atlanta team. He should also touch a big jackpot in the offseason, he who is coming to the end of his contract! For Skip Bayless, JC has become much more than a luxury lieutenant for Ice Trae, he’s the league’s most underside player!

John Collins plays much bigger than 6-9. Just might be the NBA’s most underrated player. Also an underrated interview. Just read it up on TNT. Highly entertaining.

John Collins plays like someone much taller than 2m05. He is perhaps the NBA’s most underside player. He is also very understated in interview. He has just killed his passage on TNT. Very entertaining.

Behind Trae Young’s 48 points, 11 assists, and 7 rebounds, John Collins also shone with his activity and intensity with 23 points and 15 rebounds, including 5 offensive! Figures that inevitably weighed in the final result and the victory of the Hawks. The general public did not necessarily know him before this great playoff campaign, but JC is making a name for himself!

If he wins a maximum contract this summer, John Collins will no longer be able to really enter the category of under-side players, however. With such a substantial salary, he will have to string together the performances of the genre with much more regularity. Atlanta will need it to repeat the feat of the current season!

John Collins is going to be a very rich man soon! He proves in his playoffs that he has the talent to become a very good second option, and this on both sides of the field … Something that nobody had seen coming …
