Collins was in her bag on Sunday here going back and forth with Emily Monson inside of gameplay. When she gets a chance to play in these situations, Collins is as talented of a point guard as any we’ve seen in the class nationally. She is a driver with a tough pull up and the skill needed to hit the open 3-pointer too. For Collins, being in a position to play this freely is vital to showcasing her full arsenal of offensive and defensive tools.

Collins is emerging into one of leaders of the new school in a strong 2023 class nationally. She can do a little of everything with her size at the guard spot. A high academic option, Collins is more than able to pick up and implement new pieces of teaching that are thrown her way during the training academies. Armed with a couple of new scholarship offers in the past month, her sky is the limit.

Collins is a heady point guard who can make plays with the ball in her hands. She is really growing up and adding size to become a legit backcourt option at an early age. Her ability to pass with either hand and direct traffic is her strength currently. At times she can be unselfish to a fault, but that shows she is bought into being a point guard. Her ability to change directions is also very good. She can shake defenders and leave them leaning the wrong way. Adding consistency with her jump shot is going to be an area where she should spend some time. She is a good shooter; however some fine tuning of mechanics could make her even better.
