John Collins Out for Jazz with Hip Injury
John Collins of the Utah Jazz is dealing with a left hip injury. He will not be playing in the upcoming games. The injury has kept him off the court since January 5, 2025. This is not his first time dealing with issues related to his hip.
What It Means
The absence of John Collins is significant for the Utah Jazz. He has been averaging 17.9 points and 8.3 rebounds per game this season. His shooting accuracy stands at an impressive 52.5% from the field and 43.8% from beyond the arc.
Without Collins, the team may rely more on players like Micah Potter or Svi Mykhailiuk to fill in at power forward. Potter averages only 3.5 points per game, so there may be a gap in scoring and rebounding that needs addressing.
