Ryan Rollins, a Warriors rookie from last season, has been charged with
seven counts of petit larceny for thefts throughout the first half of
this NBA season, according to Virginia court documents.

Police accuse Rollins, who was traded to Washington last summer, of
repeatedly stealing household items from a Target store, according to
The Athletic, which first reported the charges.

Rollins, 21, was waived Monday by Washington on Monday, just seven
months after the Warriors sent him to the Wizards along with Jordan
Poole, Patrick Baldwin Jr. and draft picks in exchange for Chris Paul.

“We just recently learned of the charges against Ryan,” Wizards team
president Michael Winger told The Athletic. “We cannot comment on that
matter, or the basis for our roster decisions.”

Court documents show Rollins was initially arrested in November and had
an arraignment hearing last month. The first alleged theft was on Sept.
9 and the last of seven was on Nov. 9. His next court date is Feb. 7.

Rollins didn’t see much playing time with the Warriors, appearing in
just 12 games and averaging 1.9 points per game in his rookie season out
of Toledo. He joined the Warriors as a second-round pick in a draft
night trade with the Hawks. This season, he averaged 4.1 points over 10
games off the bench for Washington, where he played six of the last
seven games before he was released.

This is just sad. His NBA career may be over before it really even has a
chance to get started.

Yeah. I kinda liked him - he had energy. Why did he feel like he needed
to shoplift cheap household items? Weird.
