    He's the definition of bust - he seems like a great kid, but we have gotten very little return for such a high draft pick.

    The positive is that there's no minutes crunch for him when he gets back, and it makes his extension cheaper.

    Trying to re-sign Zach to a cheaper deal this off-season could be a godsend in the long run for this franchise. He's only 23 years old, he's got a lot of years left even if he's basically missed two in a row. 8M/Year for a rotation player is a great deal in today's NBA.

    2020 just keeps coming at us. Let’s hope Zach the person is handling this well. Tough for the kid I’m sure.
    I’m gonna stay with hoping he heals well and gets back on the court ASAP.

    I’m very happy we have Harry Giles right now but we are a DJJ or RoCo injury away from starting Melo and that makes me terrified.

    I saw a comment on Blazers' FB the other day that Collins is lucky he is not a horse because we would have put him down. This guy's body is falling apart.

    Bummer for Zach. I'll move my hopes for him being a contributor to the back of my mind again. Recover well, big man.

    You think he was good in bubble?!? Are you out of your mind? He was bad on defense and offense.

    That 2017 draft damn, we could have Donovan or Bam Adebayo with John Collins and we end up with Zach and Biggie

    We're always a Dame injury away from being completely irrelevant. No need to live in fear of injuries to guys who have mostly stayed healthy. Every team is an unexpected injury away from being far far worse.
