Warriors traded Ryan Rollins away, and he just crushed Golden State for Bucks tonight

The Golden State Warriors were the first NBA team to have Ryan Rollins.

But on Thursday night, Rollins was the reason the Warriors lost.

The Warriors took Rollins with the No. 44 pick in the 2022 NBA Draft.

He eventually left Golden State as an added piece when Jordan Poole was traded away for Chris Paul.

And now after moving around a bit more, Rollins is shining for the Bucks.

On Thursday, the Bucks won 120-110 despite Giannis Antetokounmpo not playing.

That's because Rollins was brilliant. He put up 32 points, including five 3-pointers, and dished out eight assists.

Rollins had help from his backup point guard Cole Anthony, who put up 16 points of his own.

Both of those guys are talented players who have already bounced around some in their careers. And both are now thriving with Milwaukee.

It was a bit unexpected that Giannis was out, and it could've thrown the Bucks off. Instead, Rollins made sure they didn't lose.

When you can look like the best guard on the floor, even for a moment, while Steph Curry is on the other side? That means you had a special night.

Rollins did everything he could, and it was more than enough for the Bucks to win.

If he keeps doing this, Golden State may regret getting rid of him.
