This extension, ensuring Collins remains with the team until the conclusion of the 2025-26 season, marks a notable comeback for the 25-year-old player who faced setbacks due to ankle injuries, causing him to miss almost two entire NBA seasons.

His time with the Portland Trail Blazers in 2019-20 was limited to just 11 games, and he sat out the entire 2020-21 season due to multiple ankle surgeries.

In the 2021 offseason, Collins joined the Spurs, debuting with the team in February 2022 and playing throughout the last season.

Having been restricted to 154 games in his initial four NBA seasons, Collins has displayed his prowess in the preseason with an average of 14.2 points.

During the 2022-23 season, he participated in 63 games for the Spurs, maintaining averages of 11.6 points and 6.4 rebounds.
