Isaiah Collier News, Rumors, Updates - Utah Jazz

Sets new career high in points Collier had 23 points (9-16 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and one block over 37 minutes during Sunday's 112-111 overtime victory over the Nets.

Impact Collier had his best game of the season Sunday, and even though he left the contest for a brief period due to a hard fall, that didn't stop him from posting an excellent stat line. The rookie out of USC has started in each of the Jazz's last five games, averaging 8.2 points, 7.8 assists and 4.8 boards per contest. He's expected to remain in that role as long as Keyonte George (heel) remains sidelined.

Exits early Sunday Collier left Sunday's contest against the Nets after taking a hard fall and is out for the remainder of the game, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.

Impact Collier took a hard fall on a shot attempt and left for the locker room without shooting the free throws, so he is unable to return to the contest. Collier was performing well for a shorthanded Jazz squad before exiting with injury, logging 19 points (7-10 FG, 2-2 FT, 3-4 3Pt), seven rebounds, six assists and a block in 26 minutes. His status for Wednesday's game against the Hornets is uncertain.

Impact Collier had a tough night shooting the ball in the starting lineup with Keyonte George (heel), Jordan Clarkson (foot), John Collins (personal) and Brice Sensabaugh (illness) all on the sidelines. He's had a rough time during his rookie season and is now shooting 30.7 percent from the field and 15.7 percent from beyond the arc through 27 appearances.

Logs adequate line in first start Collier contributed seven points (3-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds and seven assists in 35 minutes during Thursday's 122-120 loss to Portland.

Impact The Jazz elected to slide Svi Mykhailiuk over to the wing and give their 2024 first-round pick his first crack at a starting role. The USC product hasn't seen much action, and while his shot was a bit rusty, he delivered solid secondary numbers to support the backcourt. Collier will slide back into a reserve role when Keyonte George (ankle) returns.

Starting vs. Portland Collier is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Trail Blazers.

DECEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Assigned to G League The Jazz assigned Collier to the G League's Salt Lake City Stars on Monday.

DECEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back to bench Tuesday Collier will come off the bench in Tuesday's game against the Suns, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact With Keyonte George (foot) returning from a one-game absence, Collier will slide back to the bench. The rookie logged his first NBA start in Saturday's win over the Spurs, during which he recorded seven points (3-9 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 1-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 25 minutes

Stuffs stat sheet Collier contributed seven points (3-9 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 1-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 25 minutes during Saturday's 111-110 win over San Antonio.

Impact Collier failed to get a shot to fall from beyond the arc, but that didn't stop him from contributing elsewhere. He packed the stat sheet in his first NBA start, filling in admirably for Keyonte George (foot). Collier should fall back into a bench role following George's return to health, but Saturday was a promising step for the rookie out of USC.

NOVEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Getting starting nod Collier will start during Saturday's game versus the Spurs, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

Impact With Keyonte George (foot) out, Collier is set to make his first NBA start against San Antonio. Collier has logged just four minutes so far this season after missing time with a hamstring injury, so this will be the rookie guard's first extended run.

NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Logs garbage-time run in NBA debut Collier (hamstring) played the final 4:13 of Thursday's game against the Bucks, finishing with zero points (0-1 FG), one turnover and no other statistics.

Impact Well after the Bucks had sewn up the victory, Collier checked into the game and made his NBA debut after he had missed the Jazz's first seven contests while recovering from the right hamstring strain he suffered during the preseason. Patty Mills continued to operate as the primary backup to starting point guard Keyonte George on Thursday, but given that the 36-year-old Mills is on an expiring deal for a 1-7 Jazz squad, expect Collier -- the 29th overall pick in June's draft -- to eventually move into a spot on the second unit at some point this season.

NOVEMBER 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Thursday Collier (hamstring) is available for Thursday's game against the Bucks.

Impact Collier is expected to make his NBA regular-season debut after sustaining a hamstring injury during the preseason. The rookie will compete for minutes with Patty Mills behind Keyonte George at point guard.

NOVEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Now expected to play Thursday Collier (hamstring) is probable for Thursday's game versus the Bucks, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact Collier has yet to play this season while dealing with a hamstring injury. However, the rookie guard went through a full practice Wednesday and has been upgraded from questionable to probable for Thursday's contest. If Collier is officially deemed available, he should compete for depth minutes in Utah's backcourt.

NOVEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Debut set for Thursday Collier (hamstring) was a full participant at Wednesday's practice and is cleared for Thursday's game versus Milwaukee, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Impact While it's unclear if Collier will see the court Thursday, the rookie point guard will be active off the bench for the first time this season. Collier was selected with the 29th overall pick out of USC.

NOVEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't debut Monday Collier (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Bulls, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports.

When he returns, the rookie is expected to compete for playing time with Patty Mills behind Keyonte George. Collier's next chance to feature will come Thursday against the Bucks.

NOVEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play against Denver Collier (hamstring) is out for Saturday's game versus the Nuggets, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.

Impact Collier has yet to suit up this season while dealing with a right hamstring strain. The rookie guard's next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Chicago.

NOVEMBER 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out vs. Spurs Collier (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against San Antonio.
