The Atlanta Hawks have lost four of their last six games, and they received some uninspiring news on Saturday evening. The team announced that forward John Collins has suffered a right foot strain after undergoing an MRI on Saturday, and that he’s expected to miss the next three games heading into the All-Star break.
Collins is averaging 16.8 points and 7.9 rebounds this season, shooting 53.7% from the floor. The fifth-year forward will receive treatment through the All-Star break in hopes of returning to the court as soon as possible. Collins scored just four points in 21 minutes in Friday’s blowout loss to the San Antonio Spurs.
