A huge loss to Collins
Collins, a native of Atlanta, Texas, attributes his greatest influence in life to his parents, Ben and Kim, according to his official UK player bio. The forward for the Wildcats recently turned 20 on October 28.
Collins has four siblings: Jamin Powell, Dailen, Makayla, and Diamond Collins.
Ben Collins told KSR that, no matter how long it took, he was looking forward to watching his son’s basketball career develop in Lexington after the star forward decided to return to Kentucky for his sophomore season.
He enjoys where he is and wants to stay there, according to Collins. We want this, so. We were aware upon his arrival that he was tiny and behind the other children due to his origins, but we accepted this. We didn’t draw much attention to it. After a year, he is aware of what to look for. When the time comes, he’ll be prepared.
“He accepted a scholarship for four years. If four years are needed, then four years are needed. If two years are needed, then two years are needed. We don’t think much of it, guy. We will operate under the premise that he is ready when he believes he is.
The Collins family is supported by KSR with its sincere condolences and prayers as they go through this trying time. A fantastic father, husband, and man who passed away far too soon.

Terrible news for a great young man and his family. Praying for you Damion, and your entire family. Didn’t know him personally, but I do remember some interviews, and he seemed to be a really solid man and extremely downtoearth. Really seemed to have his son’s best interest as a priority, as I am sure he did for all of his children. RIP Ben!

Awful news. I lost my old man unexpectedly a few years back. Miss him every day. I live every day striving to be the father mine was, and being a father is the greatest thing in the world. This man seemed to love his son and his family more than anything. Hate to hear news like this. Remember all the good things Daimion, keep that close to your heart. All the best.
