Washington is another team that has expressed interest in Collins. But Wizards officials have stood firm that the franchise intends to keep Kyle Kuzma — a known Hawks target —past the trade deadline and hope to re-sign the high-scoring forward this offseason after he declines the 2023-24 player option in his contract as expected.

Kyle Kuzma jokes on Deni Avdija's 20 rebound night that "most of them were uncontested, but I'll still give it to him."

Great game here. Zach LaVine tied it at 97-97 on a long three to beat the shot clock. Kyle Kuzma then hit a tough three over two defenders. It's 100-97 Wiz over the Bulls with 5.7 sec left. - 9:17 PM

But after Kyle Kuzma pushed the shorthanded Washington Wizards ahead with his own difficult 3-pointer with 6.2 seconds left, LaVine found himself having to explain his decision to take a 16-foot jumper with 2.3 seconds left rather than attempting another 3-pointer. "We were just trying to get a 3 off. And then when I went in to go pullup, I think it was Delon Wright fouled me. My instinct was to go up and try to get a 3-point play," LaVine said. "I was going for a pullup when he fouled me. I shot it. They didn't call it. And that's how it is." -via NBC Sports / January 12, 2023
