How Utah point guard Isaiah Collier played in his first professional start.
Coming into the 2024 NBA Draft cycle, Isaiah Collier was thought of by many to be one of the best players in the entire class. A 6-foot-4 guard with a great mix of physicality, athleticism and skill, he was a near-shoo-in as a top-five pick.He saw some inefficiency, inconsistency and was more prone to turnovers than many scouts would’ve liked, eventually falling into the hands of the Utah Jazz at No. 29 on draft night.
A freshly 20-year-old who has yet to find real consistency at any pro level, and to that point had played a measly four NBA minutes, shooting and missing only one shot — Collier underperformed, right? Collier finished 3-for-9 from the floor, certainly not the efficiency he’ll hope for career-wise. But all of his misses came from beyond the arc — a spot he’s not yet comfortable in yet – and it seems the Jazz were keen to give him a green light.
