Pistons not eyeing John Collins
However, sources tell The Athletic, that Collins isn’t someone Detroit is particularly interested in targeting. Obviously, things can change, but the power forward who has, reportedly, already overstayed his welcome in Salt Lake City isn’t a priority for the Pistons. Detroit does need forward depth and Collins’ ability to put the ball in the bucket as well as add vertical spacing would be good for the Pistons, but it appears his value continues to plummet a bit in the eyes of rival teams.

Sarah Todd: THT now questionable and Ömer Yurtseven is out due to illness tonight. John Collins and Samanic are still out for the same reason. -via Twitter @NBASarah / December 16, 2023
Perhaps the biggest surprise on the trade block is new power forward acquisition John Collins, the source said. The 26-year-old has the lowest on-court/off-court splits of any rotation player on the team, and the team has been frustrated with his slow uptake on learning the Jazz’s system on both ends of the floor. Collins has been a solid shooter and rebounder this season, but hasn’t contributed as much elsewhere. -via Salt Lake Tribune / December 14, 2023
