David Collette brings efficient low-post scoring and rim protection to Utah
Collette was a high-impact frontcourt scorer for the Utes, averaging 13.6 points and 5.1 rebounds in 2016-17 while starting all 22 games and scoring in double figures in 21 of them. His biggest differentiators were efficiency and physical presence: he shot 59.1% from the field, mixed in rim protection with 20 blocks, and was trusted as a steady low-post option. He also has a track record of producing through tough stretches, including a successful transfer transition from Utah State, which suggests toughness and adaptability rather than just box-score production.
