Collier's ball-handling and playmaking stand out among Utah's current personnel, president of basketball operations Austin Ainge said Monday, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
Collier established himself as a high-level distributor in his second season, averaging 8.7 assists across 78 regular-season appearances in 2025-26. Utah added several new pieces during the offseason, but Collier's ability to create for others gives him a distinct skill set that could help him remain involved in the Jazz's backcourt rotation.
