Former Provo High, BYU star Kyle Collinsworth trying to maximize chance to finish season with Dallas Mavericks

SALT LAKE CITY — A little less than two hours before the Utah Jazz and Dallas Mavericks were set to square off Saturday night at Vivint Arena, a single player was putting up shots on the Mavericks’ end of the floor.

Former Provo High and BYU star Kyle Collinsworth made his first trip back to the Beehive State as an NBA player, returning to the venue where he racked up his first collegiate triple-double just over three years ago, the beginning a run that saw him become the NCAA’s all-time leader in the statistic.

Undrafted after concluding his collegiate career with the Cougars, Collinsworth spent a full season with Dallas’ G League team, the Texas Legends.
