3 years agoAtlanta Hawks power forward/center John Collins (foot) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against the Celtics, marking his sixth consecutive absence due to a strained right foot. Danilo Gallinari has stepped into the starting five in his place and emerged as a solid DFS option on most nights, averaging 14 PPG over his last five outings. Collins has continued his solid production during his fifth professional season, averaging 16.8 points and 7.9 boards per outing. His next chance to take the floor comes Thursday vs. Chicago, whom he has averaged 18.3 PPG for his career, his sixth-highest mark of any opponent.--Jesse Borek
