One of the most enigmatic moves of the Spurs’ offseason was the addition of Zach Collins. It hasn’t been officially announced as of yet, but the four-year big man will play in San Antonio next season after his time in Portland.
Collins showed promise in his first two seasons in the league before injuries sidelined him for the back end of his rookie contract, so it’s understandable to be vaguely familiar with his name but not particularly knowledgeable about his game and past. So let’s get to know the latest Spur.
Collins was drafted 10th overall in the 2017 draft after a solid freshman season off the bench for Gonzaga and a great showing in the NCAA Tournament championship game.
