NBA: Ranking all 30 starting point guards for 2018-19
22. Darren Collison, Indiana Pacers
Fun fact: It wasn’t Stephen Curry or Klay Thompson that led the NBA in 3-point percentage last year; it was the unglamorous but ever-reliable Darren Collison at 46.8 percent.
Granted, he only took three 3-pointers a night, and his long range efficiency fell off a cliff in the playoffs when the Indiana Pacers needed it most, but for the most part, Collison is a steady two-way presence. Last year, he averaged a ho-hum 12.4 points and 5.3 assists per game.
Aaron Holiday may have been drafted to be his long-term replacement, but for a Pacers team coming off 48 wins and looking to capitalize on LeBron James‘ move to L.A., Collison will hold things down in the backcourt alongside Victor Oladipo.
