John Collins · Hustling back on defense tends to yield good fortune. Following a late-game turnover against the Detroit Pistons, John Collins doesn’t pout over his giveaway to Cade Cunningham — he gets even. The sixth-year Atlanta Hawks forward trails Cunningham the entire way up the court, waiting for his perfect opportunity to strike before pinning a highlight-reel block against the backboard. Collins’ refusal to give up on the play — as well as his 19 points, 11 rebounds, four blocks and a steal — led the Hawks to a hard-fought 118-113 road victory on October 26, 2022. · State of Mint · State of Mint
