Former Cougar star Kyle Collinsworth making name for himself in G League

FRISCO, Texas — The 2017-18 NBA G-League season began two weeks earlier than last season, but Kyle Collinsworth isn't complaining.

That’s because Collinsworth, 26, is coming off a debut campaign with the Texas Legends during which the BYU product averaged 6.5 points, 7 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.8 steals in 36 games, numbers he looks to better in year two.

“Yeah, I kind of like it (the earlier start), (let’s) just start playing. The NBA’s playing, that’s where we want to be, so we’re like, let’s just tip this thing off, maximize our opportunities and make it to the NBA,” he said last week.
