Bucks Guard Rankings: Who Stays, Who Goes?
25 May
Summary
- Ryan Rollins averaged 17.6 points, 5.6 assists, and 4.6 rebounds.
- Kevin Porter Jr. has a $5.4 million player option for next season.
- A.J. Green maintains a career 42% three-point shooting percentage.
The Milwaukee Bucks are ushering in a new era under head coach Taylor Jenkins, who has replaced Doc Rivers. Jenkins and General Manager Jon Horst are beginning the process of evaluating the team's current roster, with a particular focus on the backcourt.
Guard Ryan Rollins had a breakout season, averaging 17.6 points, 5.6 assists, and 4.6 rebounds, with a strong 40% three-point shooting. His performance on a team-friendly contract positions him well for a future extension.
Kevin Porter Jr., another young guard, saw increased role and proved valuable. He holds a $5.4 million player option for the upcoming season and is considered vital to Milwaukee's short and long-term plans, irrespective of Giannis's situation.
Rounding out the backcourt assessment is A.J. Green, a consistent high-volume three-point shooter with a 42% career average. Signed through the 2029-2030 season, Green is viewed as an ideal championship team role player.
The Bucks' guard situation appears stable with these players, and they may further address needs through the upcoming NBA draft or potential reinforcements if Giannis is traded.
