Stephen Curry was left shaking his head and laughing on Thursday night, but not because of his own performance. Instead, it was due to his former teammate Ryan Rollins, who scored a career-high 32 points in the Milwaukee Bucks' 120-110 win over the Golden State Warriors.
With Giannis Antetokounmpo sidelined, Rollins took center stage, proving he could thrive without the league's reigning superstar. Rollins, who was traded from the Warriors in a package that included Jordan Poole, made the most of the opportunity to face his former team.
Rollins seized the spotlight, demonstrating his ability to perform at a high level even without the team's star player.
The Bucks' win marked a notable performance by Rollins, who was part of the trade that led to the Warriors acquiring Chris Paul in 2023.
