Impact Although Rollins played just 30 minutes across his three postseason appearances, he stepped up for Milwaukee late in the regular season while Damian Lillard (Achilles) was nursing a blood clot in his calf. Over his final 13 regular-season outings (11 starts), Rollins averaged 10.8 points, 3.9 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.7 three-pointers in 24.4 minutes while shooting 52.5 percent from the floor and 47.8 percent from deep. Rollins is set to be an unrestricted free agent this summer, although the Bucks could make it something of a priority to retain his services, with Lillard's 2025-26 campaign being in jeopardy.

Not playing Sunday Rollins (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pistons, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Impact Rollins was initially listed as probable, but the third-year guard out of Toledo will be sidelined for Sunday's contest. With Rollins and Kevin Porter (wrist) both out, Jamaree Bouyea, Andre Jackson and Pat Connaughton should all see significant playing time in the Bucks' regular-season finale.

APRIL 13 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to suit up Sunday Rollins is listed as probable for Sunday's game versus the Pistons due to left shoulder injury management.

Impact Despite dealing with a shoulder issue, Rollins is expected to suit up Sunday. Due to many of Milwaukee's regulars set to sit out against Detroit, Rollins will likely receive an increased workload if he's upgraded to available.

Bucks extend winning streak to 6 games with a 136-111 win over the Pelicans

Giannis Antetokounmpo had 28 points and 11 rebounds as the Milwaukee Bucks extended their winning streak to six games with a 136-111 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans

APRIL 11

Returning to starting role Rollins is starting against the Timberwolves on Tuesday.

Impact Rollins has returned to the starting lineup after coming off the bench in the last game, meaning Kevin Porter is back in his regular second-unit role. Rollins is averaging 10.6 points, 3.4 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game in his previous 16 starts this season.

APRIL 8 • ROTOWIRE

Hands out career-high 10 dimes Rollins registered 14 points (5-15 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds, 10 assists and four steals over 28 minutes during Sunday's 111-107 victory over the Pelicans.

Impact Rollins didn't have a good shooting performance since he only converted on 33.3 percent of his field goals, but he managed to shine as a playmaker with 10 assists off the bench. This was a career-high mark for the former Toledo standout, though it's uncertain if he'll return to the starting lineup while Damian Lillard (calf) is out. Kevin Porter started against the Pelicans and finished with 20 points (8-18 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and two steals across 34 minutes.

Gary Trent Jr.'s 29 points and Brook Lopez's double-double help the Bucks top the Pelicans 111-107

Gary Trent Jr. scored a season-high 29 points, and the Milwaukee Bucks improved their hold on fifth place in the Eastern Conference by defeating the New Orleans Pelicans 111-107

APRIL 7

Retreating to bench Sunday Rollins won't start in Sunday's game against the Pelicans.

Impact Kevin Porter will draw the start at point guard, pushing Rollins to the bench. The 22-year-old guard has made five consecutive starts, averaging 13.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 2.6 three-pointers across 27.2 minutes per game. He has shot 64.1 percent from the field and 72.2 percent from downtown in that five-game span.

APRIL 7 • ROTOWIRE

Sets new season-high scoring mark Rollins notched 23 points (8-10 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, five assists and two steals across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 133-123 win over the Suns.

Impact Rollins established his previous season-high scoring mark of 20 points in a loss to the Knicks on March 28, and he needed only two games to best that output. He's done a good job replacing Damian Lillard (calf) in the starting lineup, and while his fantasy upside will be tied to Lillard's time on the sidelines, there's no question Rollins has performed better than expected. He's started in six of Milwaukee's last seven games, averaging 12.6 points, 3.6 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.1 steals per game in that span.

Scores season-high 20 points Rollins had 20 points (8-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and four assists across 34 minutes during Friday's 116-107 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Rollins returned to the starting lineup Friday and delivered an impressive outing, notching a new season-high mark in scoring and also posting decent numbers in the rebounds and assists categories. Don't expect Rollins to hover around the 20-point mark on a regular basis, but he should have an uptick in his upside as long as he remains in a starting role. He's scored in double digits in three of his last five outings, averaging 11.0 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game over that stretch.

Rollins is averaging 9.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.9 steals per game in his previous 11 starts this season.
