Rookie Report: Patrick Baldwin Jr., Ryan Rollins debut in preseason opener vs. Wizards

Along with the official start of the preseason, the Golden State Warriors contest against the Washington Wizards on Friday marked the debut of two rookies in blue and gold.

For the first time since being drafted in June, Patrick Baldwin Jr. and Ryan Rollins played alongside their new teammates with the Warriors. Both Baldwin Jr. and Rollins were absent from the Calfornia Classic and the Las Vegas Summer League due to injuries.

On Friday morning in Japan, the pair of rookies debuted for the Golden State Warriors.

The No. 28 overall pick played eight minutes off the bench, scoring seven points on 2-of-4 shooting from the field. Baldwin Jr. added one rebound against the Wizards.

Rollins added eight points on 1-of-8 shooting from the field with four boards and an assist in 11 minutes. The Tulsa product did most of his damage at the free throw line, cashing in all six of his attempts from the stripe.

In Golden State’s rematch against the Wizards on Saturday evening, both Baldwin Jr. and Rollins will likely be back on the floor for more preseason work at Saitama Super Arena in Japan.
