Nets Recently 'Touched Based' With Hawks Over John Collins 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri Dec 2, 2022 6:15 am

The Brooklyn Nets have "touched base" with the Atlanta Hawks over a potential trade featuring John Collins, sources told Ian Begley of SNY.


"I'm not sure how far along those talks went, but they have certainly engaged recently," added Begley.


Collins was most recently diagnosed with a sprained ankle and will be out at least for the next two weeks.

Well, Collins is making $23 Million this season so they would have to package Harris and Patty Mills to get the deal done. However, why not go after Clint, since the Nets need size? Harris for Clint makes much more since the contract value is closer to each other.

Capela probably too valuable for Hawks to trade, he's their starting center and is really productive, so Collins is all we can get, he's a good rebounder but no better than our current rebounders.... whereas Capela is arguably the best rebounder in the NBA.
