If Collins maintains his 3pt shooting (maybe a slight bump in volume) and can play well off the bench, I could see him getting enough value to intrigue someone.

GM's aren't that stupid. They know who and what Collins is at this point. He often passes the lazy, surface-level the eye test, but his advanced stats paint a picture of a player who doesn't affect winning at all. Basically he's as meh as they come, and that's not a great thing to be at $25 million per season.

You often hear how bad/ineffective Collins was by the end of his Hawks tenure, but I'm not sure people realize that overall he's actually having a worse season than last year. The only things that are up are his usage, rebounding (because he's not playing next to Capela anymore) and 3pt%, and he's only making 1.5 long balls per game so it's not like he's much of a factor on that front for someone who spends quite a lot of time in the corner.

Collins having "improved his value" this season is a total pipe dream.
