Toledo sophomore Ryan Rollins to remain in draft, forgo eligibility

Rollins, who was named to the All-MAC first team, averaged 18.9 points, six rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.7 steals last season.

Toledo sophomore Ryan Rollins will reportedly remain in the 2022 NBA draft and forgo his remaining collegiate eligibility, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Rollins, who was named to the All-MAC first team, averaged 18.9 points, six rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.7 steals in 34 games. He became the fourth player in program history to register at least 1,000 points in two seasons as his 641 points last season were the third-most ever by a Rocket.

The 6-foot-3 guard was among the standouts at the draft combine last month. He registered a 6-foot-9.75 wingspan, the fourth-highest differential this year, and was tied for the fastest shuttle run at 3.07 seconds. He also recorded 11 points, five rebounds and three assists in his lone scrimmage game.

Rollins is one of the biggest risers in the draft this year and is even considered by some to be a first-round pick given his ability on both ends of the floor. He can score at all three levels and offers plenty of versatility as a scorer and defender.

He will have the opportunity to continue to showcase his overall skill set to teams during private workouts and interviews so the mid-major star could climb even higher on draft boards between now and June 23.

Underclassmen have until 11:59 p.m. EDT on Wednesday to withdraw from the draft and return to school.
