Darren Collison drops 26 points as Kings down Celtics

Sacramento Kings guard Darren Collison led the Kings to an impressive 108-92 win against the Boston Celtics on Wednesday, scoring 26 points on 12-of-21 shooting with 2 3-pointers, 5 assists, 1 rebound and 4 steals.

What It Means:

Collison was forced to lead the offense with Cousins out and he did not disappoint. He also played some great defense on Isaiah Thomas, so he earned this win for the Kings. Ty Lawson went down with injury during the game, so Collison could be looking at more minutes going forward if there's an opening in the rotation.

Collison is averaging 13.4 points, 2.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.0 steals over 30.3 minutes per game this season. He has a .540 effective field goal percentage and his nERD of -0.2 ranks 205th in the NBA currently.
