No, it is the problem, the same as with findFirst(). Try it:
Comparator<String> nullFriendly =
Comparator.nullsFirst(Comparator.naturalOrder());
List<String> data = Arrays.asList("hello", null, "world");
System.out.println(Collections.min(data, nullFriendly)); // null -- correct
System.out.println(data.stream().min(nullFriendly)); // NPE!
