Ryan Rollins' abrupt demotion doesn't mean his Bucks future is bleak
Ryan Rollins was struggling, without a doubt, but it was still surprising to see Taylor Jenkins yank him from the starting five this early. In the Milwaukee Bucks' matchup with Minnesota, Rollins came off the bench behind Brayden Burries, who made his first NBA start. While shocking, this shouldn't be viewed as the beginning of the end of Rollins' time in Milwaukee. It could just be a recalibration of his role.
It makes perfect sense to bench Rollins
When a player gets demoted, the first thought is where they might play next. Yet, fans should not fire up the trade machine just yet. This could just be Taylor Jenkins testing something new.
