STRENGHTS WEAKNESSESS
  • fairly good frame with enough muscles in upper and lower body
  • shows much above average ball handling skills. Comfortable using either hand
  • really good IQ and scoring instincts. Just know how to play. Can use different speeds
  • plays both backcourt positions with equal success if lack of height is not used by opponents
  • walks a fine line between scoring and assisting. Can do both on really, really good level
  • absolutely top notch body control and genuine footwork while driving to the rim
  • plays with calm and mature demeanor
  • notable shooter. Possess an ability to pull up off the dribble with three point range
  • good passer. Finds creative solutions to share the ball
  • capable defender on 1 position. Willing to guard above three point line. Decent lateral movement
  • average height for NBA standards
  • a bit of the ball hog who prefers controlled style maybe a bit too much? Not the most willing guy to push the tempo or share the ball quickly
  • average athlete in terms of leaping
  • may have good touch on floaters and some mid range shooting arsenal but limited around the rim facing the elite length
  • definitely needs consistency from behind the arc
OUTLOOK
Rokas is well rounded player without big flaws who is considered one of the best guards in this generation. He possess intriguing combination of skillset and cleverness which allowed him to be integral part of every team/setting he played in so far. It is not out of question if he is able to continue making it on senior level and appear on Draft radar.
