Everyone knows that Trae Young is the proverbial “Superman” for this new iteration of the Atlanta Hawks, but anyone talking about the promise held by the Hawks would be remiss to not talk about John Collins as the “Batman” alongside Young. Over the Hawks’ last 53 games of the season, Collins averaged over 20 points and more than 10 rebounds per game, while shooting just under 56% from the floor and even just over 37% from three point range.

The advanced statistics show Atlanta was markedly better with Collins on the floor, and if he can develop the defensive part of his game, he has All-Star-level potential.
