Darren Collison

Darren Collison returns to Pacers' starting lineup with 15 points and 8 assists

Indiana Pacers guard Darren Collison started Monday for the first time since returning from knee surgery, and he scored 15 points on 5-for-10 shooting, to go with 4 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal, and 1 block in a 110-100 win over the Los Angeles Lakers.

What It Means:

The Pacers missed Collison's scoring and leadership on the floor while he was out, but since he's returned they are 4-2 over their last six with just 11 games left to play this season. Collison will likely remain the starter as long as he stays healthy, which makes Cory Joseph tougher to stream in year-long fantasy playoffs.

Our early models for Wednesday project Collison for 28.4 FanDuel points at a cost of $5,600.
