Ryan Rollins, Taurean Prince, Kyle Kuzma, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Brook Lopez against the Timberwolves on Tuesday.
Rollins only starts when Giannis plays. Antetokounmpo is back after missing Sunday’s game, which means Rollins will be back in the starting lineup. That will push Kevin Porter Jr. and Gary Trent Jr. to the bench, though both will still play large roles.
Ryan Rollins started again on Tuesday and contributed 23 points (8-of-10 FGs), five rebounds, five assists, two steals and five three-pointers against the Suns.
Rollins has started six of Milwaukee’s last seven games, and the last few have been productive for him. Two games after he set a career-high with 20 points, Rollins set another career-high. Over the past two weeks, Rollins has averaged 12.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, four assists, 1.1 steals and 2.1 triples per game. That has him producing top-100 value in nine-cat leagues during that stretch, and with Damian Lillard out indefinitely, Rollins should be a quality option for the rest of the season.
Ryan Rollins amassed 20 points (8-of-12 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, four assists and three three-pointers in 34 minutes in Friday’s loss to the Knicks.
The return of Giannis Antetokounmpo also resulted in Rollins moving back into the starting lineup on Friday. The performance was arguably his best as a pro, with the third-year guard scoring a career-high 20 points. Rollins, who shot 66.7 percent from the field, provided solid value in the rebound, assist and three-point categories. He isn’t a great streaming option, but Rollins has a more straightforward path to consistent value with Damian Lillard (calf) out of the lineup. Gary Trent Jr. (14 points, one rebound and four three-pointers) is a safer streaming option despite coming off the bench.
Ryan Rollins, Taurean Prince, Kyle Kuzma, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Brook Lopez will start Friday’s game against the Knicks.
The big news for the Bucks is that Gainnis is back and will be in the starting lineup. However, there are two changes to the starting five, as Rollins will also start. As a result, Kevin Porter Jr. and Gary Trent Jr. will return to the bench. However, both still have streaming value as Damian Lillard (calf) remains out.
