John Collins, one of the most high-profile restricted free agents this summer, has reportedly agreed to a five-year, $125-million deal to stay with the Atlanta Hawks, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.
The deal, Wojnarowski reported, will include a player option in the fifth year for Collins.
A 19th overall pick in the 2017 draft, Collins has grown into a pivotal role for the Hawks alongside star guard Trae Young.
In 63 games last season, Collins averaged 17.6 points, 7.4 rebounds and one block while shooting 55.6 per cent from the floor.
