The Lakers have been linked to Collison for some time, so it’s not a huge surprise to see him at the team’s facility. One can only wonder if this is a sign that he is getting close to finalizing a deal with the team for the upcoming season.
The 34-year-old would be a welcome addition to the roster, as he would bring plenty of experience. The only issue is that he has not played in the NBA since the 2018-19 season.
The former first-round pick has career averages of 12.5 points, 2.7 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.2 steals per game. He has been a consistent performer throughout his entire time in the NBA.
