PATTERNS

Boom-or-bust player. Collins's impact swings wildly relative to his average — some nights dominant, others invisible. Scoring varies by ~5 points per game.

Reliable shooter — hits 45%+ from the field in 89% of games. You can count on efficient nights more often than not.

Good defender on his best nights, but it comes and goes. Some games Collins locks in defensively, others he gets picked apart.

Slight upward trend. First-half impact: -0.8, second-half: +1.4. Modest improvement — possibly settling into a rhythm.
