Last year in Las Vegas, rookie Zach Collins, who the Trail Blazers acquired from the Sacramento Kings during the 2017 NBA Draft, suffered a minor injury that kept him out of all but the first two games of Portland’s summer league schedule.
This time around, he’s getting the minor injuries out of the way before the start of summer league play.
The 7-0 power forward/center who was selected with the 10th overall pick in last year’s draft out of Gonzaga, suffered a broken nose during the first day of summer league practice Tuesday at the Trail Blazers’ practice facility in Tualatin.
