## Ryan Rollins' Season Expectations
Many expected Ryan Rollins to carry momentum from his career year last season into this one, especially with Giannis Antetokounmpo's departure.
## Rollins' Last Season Stats
Rollins averaged 17.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.5 steals per game while shooting 47.2% from the field and 40.6% from the 3-point line.
## Rollins' Early Season Performance
In five games, Rollins averaged 11.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game on 33.8% shooting from the field and 28.6% from the 3-point line.

## Rollins' Good Games
Rollins scored 19 points against the Indiana Pacers and 15 points against the Philadelphia 76ers in recent games.
## Kasparas Jakučionis Comparison
Kasparas Jakučionis has been efficient when scoring and produced similar numbers to Rollins, often playing down the stretch in games over Rollins.
## Rollins' Current Challenges
Rollins' shooting will likely progress to the mean if he gets decent looks, but he must justify his starting role with two recent first round picks behind him.
## Jaime Jaquez Jr. Example
Jaime Jaquez Jr. had a solid rookie season with the Heat but a horrible second season before returning for his third season with renewed confidence and energy.
## Rollins' Future Outlook
Rollins may solve his issues quickly to secure his starting role and team success.
