Ryan Rollins Returns from Injury with 27 Points, Stuffs Stat Sheet

Ryan Rollins returned from a brief absence due to plantar fasciitis, showing no lingering effects as he totaled 27 points (10-15 FG, 7-10 3Pt), two rebounds, six assists, four steals, and two blocks across 36 minutes in Friday's 139-118 victory over the Pelicans. Rollins tied for the team lead in scoring and contributed significantly across all categories. While Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) remains out but is expected back soon, Rollins' offensive responsibilities may decrease upon his return.
