Rokas Jokubaitis Highlights
Rokas Jokubaitis NBA Draft Profile
Strengths
Rokas Jokubaitis is a skilled passer who is capable of keeping offenses flowing by making sound decisions. Jokubaitis is also a great mid-range jump shooter and a capable finisher around the rim with either hand. As a defender, Jokubaitis has excellent vision and is a hard-nosed on-ball defender.
Weaknesses
Rokus Jokubaitis is the classic player who has all of the knowledge and play-making abilities needed to succeed but lacks the physical ability to execute consistently. He has a solid mid-range jump shot, so the next step for him will be to develop a three-point shot. His lack of athleticism can be made up for if he can help spread the floor and learn how to be a low-turnover piece of an offense.
