John Collins Delivers Highlight-Reel Dunk Against Chicago Bulls
In a standout moment during the Utah Jazz‘s game against the Chicago Bulls on November 4, 2024, forward John Collins showcased his athleticism with a powerful dunk. Early in the second quarter, Collins charged to the rim and threw down a mean dunk on Bulls defender Coby White, a play that has been widely highlighted across social media and sports platforms.
Collins had a strong first half at the United Center, contributing nine points, five rebounds, and three assists in just 11 minutes. This performance was part of a solid team effort that saw the Jazz lead 30-27 after the first quarter and extend their lead to double digits midway through the second quarter. Despite their efficiency issues early in the season, the Jazz shot an impressive 60 percent from the floor and 46.7 percent from three-point range in the first 20 minutes of the game.
The Utah Jazz, currently the only winless team in the NBA with a 0-6 record, were without All-Star Lauri Markkanen due to back spasms. This loss streak is the longest to start a season since the Philadelphia 76ers and New Orleans Pelicans had winless streaks of seven and eight games, respectively, in the 2016-17 season.
The Chicago Bulls, on the other hand, have had a more promising start to the season, maintaining a .500 record through six games with wins over notable teams like the Milwaukee Bucks, Memphis Grizzlies, and Orlando Magic.
