NBA Daily Notes: The Pistons finally win; top fantasy picks for December 16th

PF 1 - John Collins (Atlanta Hawks):

The Atlanta Hawks have been a really bad team to start their 2018-19 NBA season. They are currently bottom of the Eastern Conference with a 6-22 record, having lost 7 of their last 10 matches and they do not seem likely to win a lot this season. They have lost their last 2 matches in a row and go up against the Brooklyn Nets tomorrow. One player who has not had the spotlight on him but is having a really good start to his season is forward John Collins.

Atlanta Hawks are horrid this season

Collins has been outperforming expectations since his return onto the court, averaging almost 18 points per game, along with atleast 9 rebounds too. He has had 7 matches in a row where he has post a double-double and it doesn't look like he will stop anytime soon. In his last 3 games, he has scored an average of 20 points per match, while grabbing almost 14 rebounds per game as well. He has had a block each game and will continue to get better as he becomes more accustomed to the court after his injury. Look out for him to have a great game against the Brooklyn Nets.

Alternate pick: Pascal Siakam (Toronto Raptors)
