Shortly after the Spurs signed Doug McDermott, they added another stretch four by inking former Trail Blazers big man Zach Collins to a three-year, $22 million deal.

Collins, still only 23-years-old, didn’t receive a qualifying offer from Portland, which made him an unrestricted free agent. He has shown flashes of potential since being drafted 10th overall in 2017 but has had three ankle surgeries over the past year, making this a high-risk, high-reward signing.
Welcome to the Spurs family, Zach!
