A highly-skilled seven-footer with good mobility, Zach Collins blocked nearly two shots in just 17 minutes per game in his lone season with the Zags. He’s also a burgeoning three-point shooter; it’s a small sample size, but he shot nearly 48 percent from distance this past season. His form is also solid.

Collins will need to improve his feel for the game; he’s not a great decision-maker or distributor at this juncture. But big men who can block shots and (potentially) shoot threes are few and far between.
