INJURIES

Pops for season-high 15 points Collins racked up 15 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block across 19 minutes during Friday's 104-102 victory over the Jazz.
Impact Collins saw a season-high 19 minutes in the victory, coming through with his best game of the season. Since returning to action in early February, Collins has been able to carve out a regular spot in the rotation. His production has been a bit up and down, which is not surprising given his lengthy layoff, and so he is not a player to be targeting outside of very deep formats.

Strong defensive showing off bench Collins scored five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt) while adding 10 rebounds, two assists, two blocks and a steal in 18 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 123-117 loss to the Hornets...
Impact The former Portland center has arguably his best game yet since finally joining the Spurs lineup, recording double-digit boards and multiple blocks for the first time this season. Collins has yet to see even 20 minutes in a game behind Jakob Poeltl, however, limiting his fantasy utility to DFS formats.

Returns to bench Collins will come off the bench for Monday's game against the Grizzlies, Jeff Garcia of KENS 5 San Antonio reports.
Impact Collins drew a spot start Saturday against the Heat due to the absence of Jakob Poeltl (back), but with Poeltl back in action Monday, Collins will go back to a reserve role. He's averaging 5.5 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 16.2 minutes in his last six matchups off the bench.

Available Saturday after all Collins (rest) will play Saturday against the Heat but is expected to be on a minutes restriction, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
Impact It was initially reported that Collins would get a rest day Saturday, but it sounds like he's now expected to see about 15 minutes (or less) of court time against Miami. Jock Landale is still likely to see extra minutes in San Antonio's frontcourt due to Collins' minutes restriction.

Out Saturday Collins won't play in Saturday's game against the Heat for rest purposes, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
Impact Collins didn't make his 2021-22 debut until earlier this month after a prolonged recovery from foot surgery, so the Spurs are simply just exercising some caution in holding him out of one half of back-to-back sets. He played 16 minutes in Friday's 157-153 double-overtime win over the Wizards, finishing with four points (2-5 FG, 0-2 2Pt), three rebounds, two steals, one assist and one block.
FEBRUARY 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Not on injury report Collins (ankle) isn't on the injury report for Monday's game against the Bulls.
Impact Collins was unavailable Saturday against New Orleans but should be back in action following a one-game absence. He averaged 6.7 points and 6.0 rebounds in 15.7 minutes per game across his last three appearances.

Ruled out Saturday Collins (ankle) is out Saturday against the Pelicans, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
Impact Collins has appeared in each of the last three games, and he averaged 6.7 points, 6.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists in 15.7 minutes per contest during that time. He'll sit out the second half of a back-to-back set Saturday, which should lead to increased run for Jock Landale.

Looks good in 2021-22 debut Collins (ankle) provided 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and two steals across 13 minutes Friday in the Spurs' 131-106 win over the Rockets.
Impact Collins' Spurs debut -- and his first appearance at the NBA level since August 2020 -- went about as well as the team could have envisioned. After signing him to a three-year contract this summer, San Antonio was careful to ease Collins back into action following multiple surgeries on his left foot/ankle, but the 24-year-old impressed in his initial appearances with the Spurs' G League affiliate in January before getting the call to the NBA club Friday. He stepped in as the top backup to starting center Jakob Poeltl and made a case to keep that role over Jock Landale (concussion) moving forward with an impressive outing during his limited time on the court. Unless the Spurs are willing to give Collins some more run at power forward, his path to steady minutes is somewhat blocked, but at the very least, the 24-year-old put himself on the radar in deep leagues with Friday's performance.

Available to debut Friday Collins (conditioning) is off the injury report for Friday's game against the Rockets.
Impact Collins has been out since August of 2020, with ankle and foot injuries derailing the early portion of his career. The Spurs gave him eight warm-up games in the G League this season, where he averaged 15.3 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.8 blocks in 25.8 minutes. Now, after getting his conditioning up, he's ready to potentially make his season and team debut Friday. Assuming Collins sees the court, he probably will have his workload monitored, and fantasy managers shouldn't expect significant minutes out of Collins in the near future. However, with the team struggling and unlikely to make the playoffs, we may see a bump in playing time after the All-Star break and down the final stretch of the regular season.

Could make Spurs debut Friday Collins may make his Spurs debut Friday night against the Heat, Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News reports.
Impact Collins has not played since August of 2020 in the NBA bubble, as a series of ankle and foot injuries have derailed the early portion of his career. It's been a long road back for the No. 10 overall pick in 2017, but after spending considerable time conditioning and playing in the G League, it looks like he's close to returning to NBA action. Coach Gregg Popovich stopped short of explicitly saying that Collins will play Friday, but with both Jock Landale and Jakob Poeltl in concussion protocols, it would make sense to bring the Gonzaga product back into the fold. Chances are, the Spurs will handle Collins' workload with extreme caution in the short term, but he could grow into an expanded role after the All-Star break.

Back from G League, out Tuesday Collins was recalled from the G League, but he'll remain out for Tuesday's game against the Warriors, Bruno Passos of SB Nation reports.
Impact Collins continues to look good in G League action, most recently putting up 15 points, 18 boards, three assists and two blocks in Thursday's win over the Sioux Falls Skyforce. The Spurs are listing him as out due to "Return to Competition Training," so it appears he still may have a final hurdle to clear before making his debut. Whenever Collins takes the floor for the Spurs, it will mark his first action since the Orlando bubble in August of 2020.

Still out Sunday Collins (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the 76ers due to return to competition reconditioning, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
Impact Collins has appeared in two G League games, and the injury designation for his surgically-repaired ankle has been removed. However, he'll still be out Sunday due to conditioning issues. Ultimately, it seems like Collins will be making his season debut sooner than later.

Recalled from G League Collins (ankle) was recalled from the G League on Saturday, Jeff Garcia of KENS 5 San Antonio reports.
Impact Collins has appeared in two G League games for the Austin Spurs. In 22.5 minutes, he's averaged 15.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.0 blocks and 1.0 assists. Given that Collins is seemingly healthy, he could make his return in the NBA sooner than later.

To play another game with Austin Collins (ankle) will play one more game with the Austin Spurs before presumably joining San Antonio, Jeff Garcia of KENS 5 San Antonio reports.
Impact Collins hasn't appeared in an NBA game since 2019 due to a slew of injuries, but the big man appears to be nearing a return with San Antonio, assuming all goes well in the final game of his rehab assignment in the G League. It's unclear as to the role he'll have in the Spurs' rotation, assuming he is ultimately recalled.
