Rollins is averaging a solid line of 17.3 points, 3.5 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 1.9 steals per game in his 10 starts this season. Scoring aside, his ability to fill the stat sheet and make his presence felt on both sides of the ball is standing out.

Bucks' Ryan Rollins: Career-best performance in win
Rotowire
Rollins notched 25 points (8-11 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds, four assists and four steals in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 121-111 win over the Knicks.
Rollins landed a career-high 25 points, helping guide the Bucks to an impressive victory.

The eventual return of Porter will complicate things, but for now, make sure Rollins is rostered in all formats.

Bucks' Ryan Rollins: Chips in 13 points as starter
Rotowire
Rollins produced 13 points (5-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and three steals over 30 minutes during Friday's 122-116 win over the Raptors.
After coming off the bench Opening Night against the Wizards on Wednesday, Rollins was inserted into the starting lineup to replace the injured Kevin Porter (ankle). Rollins finished as the Bucks' leader in steals and finished fourth on the team in scoring. An early area of concern has been his three-point shooting; after connecting on 40.8 percent of his triples last season, he is 2-for-11 from deep to start this season. Rollins could make a second consecutive start Sunday against the Cavaliers if Porter is not cleared to return.

Rotowire
Rollins will start at point guard Friday against the Raptors, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
With Kevin Porter (ankle) sidelined, it's not a big surprise to see the Bucks turn to Rollins.

Bucks' Ryan Rollins: More minutes coming
Rotowire
Rollins notched nine points (2-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 133-120 win over the Wizards.
Kevin Porter will undergo an MRI on Thursday to determine the severity of his left ankle issue that forced him to leave Wednesday's game early. In his absence against the Wizards, it was Rollins who coach Doc Rivers turned to rather than Cole Anthony, with Anthony logging just 12 minutes on the night. With Porter's ankle injury appearing pretty significant, Rollins is likely to be scooped up in a lot of fantasy leagues with a clear runway for more minutes and usage.
Rollins (eye) closed with 13 points (5-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two assists, one steal and one block in 17 minutes during Tuesday's preseason loss to the Thunder.
Rollins suffered a cut above his right eye Tuesday that required stitches, per Eric Nehm of The Athletic. It doesn't sound like the issue will impact his status going forward. Rollins is ticketed for a reserve role behind Kevin Porter and Cole Anthony in 2025-26.

Bucks' Ryan Rollins: Chips in 10 points in preseason win
Rotowire
Rollins registered 10 points (4-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 16 minutes in Monday's 103-93 preseason win over the Heat.
With all 20 available players logging minutes, Rollins was one of four Milwaukee players to score in double figures during the preseason-opening victory. The 23-year-old point guard underwent offseason surgery on his left shoulder but is now fully healthy ahead of the regular season. The 2022 second-round pick signed a three-year, $12 million deal with Milwaukee in July after flashing potential while Damian Lillard (Achilles) was sidelined to end the 2024-25 regular season. Although Kevin Porter is expected to start with Lillard back in Portland, Rollins will compete with Cole Anthony (face) for playing time off the bench.

Rotowire
Rollins said Thursday that he underwent shoulder surgery during the offseason, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Rollins pushed through a left shoulder issue during the 2024-25 regular season. He said he's 100 percent now, however, but he noted that it took a full four months of recovery. Rollins is projected to be the third-string point guard behind Kevin Porter and Cole Anthony this season.
Bucks' Ryan Rollins: Signs three-year deal with Bucks
Rotowire
Rollins has agreed to a three-year, $12 million deal with the Bucks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Rollins will return to Milwaukee on a three-year deal after posting career-high averages of 6.2 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 14.6 minutes per game across 56 regular-season appearances during the 2024-25 campaign. The 23-year-old pro could be in line for a larger role this coming season with the departure of Damian Lillard (Achilles), which leaves the Bucks with questions in the backcourt.
