I always wonder what qualfies as a star these days, cause he averaged 22/10 with 1.6 blocks last year. That´s pretty damn close to the numbers of LaMarcus Aldridge, when half the league chased him in free agency. And he´s 23 years old.
His shooting numbers are average to above average from practical everywhere on the floor and he´s already proven to be a decent to good defensive player.
What´s his star ceiling?
Cause I´m pretty good, if he just does 22/10 with 40% 3pt shooting and almost 2 BPG for the rest of his Mavs career.
Sadly I also think the Hawks will realize this, pay him the max and just trade Gallinari in six months to cost correct their cap.
If they decide to actually let Collins go, it will be due to other reasons than financial. Clash/role dispute with Trae Young and future minutes for Hunter/Okungwu.
