STRENGHTS WEAKNESSESS
  • very good size for a wing. A bit lanky now but nice and well-proportioned frame
  • great overall athleticism for European standards. Never misses a chance to finish with the dunk. Super quick
  • size, leaping and tremendous effort make him notable rebounder
  • loves speeding up the game in grab & go. Can throw some passes with authority
  • highly energetic. Pursues loose balls, always first in transition offense
  • nice shooting mechanics. Effortless, high arching and quick motion
  • shows nice instincts. Knows when and where to cut
  • not limited to simple catch and shoot. Can also run off screens, has pull up arsenal
  • has long strides and some shiftiness
  • very good lateral mobility. Stays in front with the guards, bothers with length. Possibly high level defender
  • good not great ball handler in half court
  • doesn’t always finish his follow through
  • still gets affected by contact
OUTLOOK
Rogkavopoulos signed 6 year contract with AEK Athens during summer of 2017. He got recognized early in youth basketball circuit and continues to impress. He is much more than your typical 3 & D player. Given his size, hard work, athleticism and plenty of room he has to improve skill & strength wise, it is not out of question for Nikolaos to end up as a good Draft & stash option.
