NBA 2018-19: 3 Talking points from the Indiana Pacers' win over the Atlanta Hawks

#2 John Collins and Rookie Kevin Huerter's strong night

John Collins scored 22 points and snagged 16 rebounds

After an impressive rookie season with the Atlanta Hawks, John Collins took his game to another level as he is averaging career-high numbers in all the five statistical categories for a double-double.

Collins powered the Hawks to victory against the Cleveland Cavaliers by posting a double-double only few nights before. Against the Pacers, the 21-year-old was once again the center of attraction as he scored 22 points and snagged 16 rebounds for his 6th straight double-double.

The 20-year-old Rookie Kevin Huerter was selected by the Hawks with the 19th overall pick in the 2018 NBA draft. He scored season-high 22 points against the Pacers on a 6-for-9 hot shooting from behind the arc. Huerter received 40 minutes of playing time which is a season-high for the rookie. This is the first time he has scored over 20 points in this season.
