  With a weaker recruiting class, it is incredibly important to hit big in the transfer portal. Players like Kyle Macy, Johnny Juzang, and Kyle Wiltjer have all come out of the transfer portal and done huge things for their next teams.

The Atlanta native is averaging 34.3 points, 14.8 rebounds, 7 assists, and 5 blocks so far throughout his senior season. Collins' incredible defense draws comparisons to the likes of Anthony Davis and Isaiah Jackson. Could Daimion Collins be the ne
