Collins is expected to command a salary at or near the max. The Hawks don’t necessarily have to pay him this summer. They could wait until the summer of 2021 to retain his restricted free agency rights and let the market set what he should be paid. Collins and his representation, however, will want to get a deal done as soon as possible.
Collins has developed into one of the best young power forwards in the league. He has turned into a good defensive player this season, and there are few as gifted as him on the offensive end of the floor. When directly asked if he considers Collins a priority for the Hawks’ future, Schlenk gave a succinct answer.
“Yeah. John is one of our best players,” Schlenk said.
