Darren Collison isn't ready to give up on his NBA comeback.

Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium reported the veteran point guard is set to sign with the G League's South Bay Lakers in hopes of eventually landing an NBA call-up.

Collison, 34, previously spent a three-game stint with the Lakers after coming out of retirement. He averaged just 1.3 points and 1.3 rebounds while shooting 28.6 percent from the floor and looked very much like a player who hadn't been in professional basketball for nearly three years.

The idea of Collison making a comeback at this point is surprising given he turned down millions of dollars to retire after the 2018-19 season. He cited his faith among the main reasons he wanted to walk away from the NBA. 

Perhaps a stint in the G League will give Collison a chance to get back up to speed in a way jumping straight into NBA action did not. 

That said, he looked a long way from the player who was garnering eight-figure offers three years ago the last time he was on the floor.
