125 million contract expires! Clippers reporter talks about Collins contract renewal, he is about to explode next season

5:56pm, 22 August 2025【Basketball】

The Clippers formed a luxury lineup this offseason, and they sent Powell away for the team's coveted No. 4 Collins. Then he signed Bill with Harden's relationship. The Clippers' starting lineup was already terrifying, Harden's point guard, Bill's point guard, Leonard Jr., and inside Corinth Zubac. Paul is also accompanied by substitutes, Bogdan, Dunn and Daluo Jones are also powerful players. It can be said that the Clippers have been armed to their teeth.

For the Clippers, next season is also the last chance. They need a championship too much, and winning can help many players wash away their shame. Harden and Paul are in a great success, Harden can prepare to return to the Rockets to retire, and Paul will even play for another year. Leonard will also prove that the Clippers will not lose money in introducing him, despite the loss of Alexander. Bill also needs to make a comeback in the Clippers, including Collins. Clippers media "CLIPPERHOLICS" also issued a special article today to comment on some players of the team.

Ship Records believe that their championship prospects are very high next season, and many players need to prove themselves, which is also the year of the contract. They will attack with all their might for the contract and will not be lazy. Among them, Collins was the first to be hit, and CLIPPERHOLICS believes that Collins will explode in the new season. The five-year, 125 million contract he signed with the Hawks will expire next year's offseason, and he will have to fight for the championship for the Clippers. Collins was the 4-5 swayer at the Hawks, and he was originally the core leader that the team dreamed of.

At that time, the Hawks imitated the Warriors in full swing, Trae Young was Curry, and Collins was Thompson in the fourth position. Unfortunately, Collins failed to seize the opportunity and eventually renewed his contract with the Eagles with an average salary of 25 million. Now Collins has another opportunity to pursue a big contract. Both the Clippers and the US media believe that if Collins can produce explosive output, the Clippers' management will be in trouble. The Clippers are facing great pressure to renew their contracts, especially with passers like James Harden around Collins.

Zubac's data has been doubled by Harden in the past two seasons. When Harden joined the Clippers, everyone said that Zubac was a butterfly player. If Harden could feed Zubac, he would recognize his organizational ability. In the end, Harden lived up to expectations. Fortunately, Zubac was not greedy and did not ask the Clippers for maximum salary. Instead, he renewed his contract with the Clippers in advance last year. As a result, the team made a fortune. Zubac is now the top 10 inside player in the league. It can be said that Harden's transformation of Zubac is a miracle and an achievement recognized by all fans.

Colins's style of play is more suitable for Harden. He can play in the fifth position of the small ball, he can open up space, and has terrifying outside abilities. Average of 19 points, 8.2 rebounds and 2 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 52.7%, and a three-pointer of up to 40%. The most critical issue is that the Clippers introduced Paul again, which was a combination of light bulbs to feed Collins continuously. When the Clippers reporter mentioned Collins, they specifically said Powell, and they believed that Collins might copy Powell's route. Powell hit a career high last season under Harden's feeding cake. When the Clippers faced trouble of renewing their contract, they chose to take Powell at a high price. What should the Clippers do if Collins makes a fortune? He is an expiring contract and cannot be traded at that time. If you choose to operate on the trading deadline, the Clippers are losing too much.

"CLIPPERHOLICS" analysis: "If Collins replicates Powell's All-Star performance around Harden in January-February next year, what should the Clippers do? Will he send him away on the trading deadline for exchange? Or will he let him go in vain in the offseason? Or may the Clippers choose to keep him? But the Clippers want to make room in 27 years, which is quite tricky."
