Won't play Thursday
Collins (neck/head) won't play in Thursday's game against Minnesota, per Law Murray of The Athletic.
Analisi
Collins is out for a second consecutive contest due to a head laceration and neck soreness. Sunday's tilt against the Pelicans marks the 28-year-old power forward's next chance to suit up. With Kawhi Leonard (ankle) also sidelined, Jordan Miller and Kobe Sanders appear to be worth streaming in most fantasy formats in a pinch.

Questionable for Thursday
Collins (head/neck) is questionable for Thursday's game versus the Timberwolves, Janis Carr of The Orange County Register reports.
Analisi
Collins was able to get through Wednesday's practice, so the questionable tag is encouraging. If he's cleared to return, Kobe Sanders would likely return to the second unit.

Practices Wednesday
Collins (head/neck) practiced Wednesday, but his status for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves has not yet been determined, Janis Carr of The Orange County Register reports.
Analisi
Collins getting through practice is an encouraging sign, but for now, he should be viewed as questionable for Thursday's game. If he's cleared to return, Kobe Sanders would likely head back to the second unit and Nicolas Batum could lose some minutes.

Out Sunday with sore neck
Collins has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Magic due to a head laceration and neck soreness.
Analisi
Though Collins will have to miss at least one game after exiting Friday's 125-122 loss to the Clippers in the second quarter, he at least appears to have avoided a concussion after taking a hard fall to the court. After the game, head coach Tyronn Lue told Mark Medina of TheSportingTribune.com that Collins needed some stitches to seal a wound near his left eye, and the big man also apparently suffered a sore neck. With Collins sidelined for Sunday's contest, supporting players like Nicolas Batum and Jordan Miller could have higher minutes floors, and rookie Kobe Sanders could resurface in Lue's nine-man rotation.

Won't return Friday
Collins (head) won't return to Friday's game against the Lakers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports. He'll finish with 12 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and one steal across 16 minutes.
Analisi
Collins went up for a lob pass but was fouled and ended up hitting his head on the floor late in the second quarter. He was initially considered questionable to return but never checked back in. The big man's next opportunity to play will come Sunday against the Magic. If Collins is forced to miss additional time, Nicolas Batum and Bennedict Mathurin would likely see increased minutes, while Kobe Sanders could enter the rotation.

Analisi

Exits to locker room
Collins exited to the locker room in the second quarter of Friday's game against the Lakers and is being evaluated for a head injury, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Analisi
Collins went up for a lob pass but was fouled and ended up hitting his head on the floor. If he's unable to return, he'll finish with 12 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and one steal across 16 minutes. Nicolas Batum and Kobe Sanders would likely see increased minutes if Collins isn't cleared to check back in.

Records third double-double
Collins recorded 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), 12 rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal across 32 minutes during Thursday's 115-114 win over Denver.
Analisi
Collins' rebound numbers have prevented him from reaching the double-double milestone consistently this season. His current 2025-26 average of 5.2 rebounds per game marks his lowest in the category by a wide margin. There's a chance that Ivica Zubac's departure could give his results a slight boost, but Brook Lopez and Derrick Jones have fared well off the glass and could hinder Collins' chance for improvement.
