29-year old point guard Darren Collison will be back for the Sacramento Kings tomorrow night against the New Orleans Pelicans, as he has finished serving his 8-game suspension from the NBA. He will jump right back into the starting five. Collison has played in 119 games (60 starts) in his first two years with the Kings and he is averaging 31.8 minutes, 14.8 points, 2.6 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.2 steals per game. He has shot 48% from the floor, 38.9% from the three point line and 82.7% from the free throw line in his first couple of years with the Kings. 29-year old Ty Lawson will move to the bench to back up Collison. Lawson has played in 8 games (all starts) for the Kings so far this year and he is averaging 32.0 minutes, 6.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 1.1 steals per game. Lawson is only shooting 32.1% from the floor, 29.4% from three point range and 62.5% from the free throw line so far this year for the Kings, which is pretty awful!
