Collins left Wednesday's 135-105 loss to the Knicks with an illness, then missed Friday's practice due to the ailment. He's battling a respiratory issue that will force him to miss his third contest of the season. Noa Essengue, Leonard Miller and Patrick Williams could all see additional minutes versus the 76ers with Collins out.

ToughOver his last 10 games, Zach Collins has gone over 9.5 PTS 7 of 10 decided times (70%) — versus 70% across the full season. NYK has been a tough matchup for forwards this season, allowing the 27th-most PTS of 30 teams (10.8 per game). His game-to-game PTS have been moderately variable (σ ≈ 4.1), so short streaks can mislead. These are descriptive stats about past games, not predictions or betting advice.
