2021 NBA Draft scouting report: Rokas Jokubaitis

20 year-old Lithuanian guard Rokas Jokubaitis is no stranger to the NBA Draft process.

An early entrant in the 2020 NBA Draft, Jokubaitis ended up withdrawing his name from consideration, electing to spend another season with Lithuanian and Euroleague side Zalgiris, where he has spent his entire professional career with thus far.

With an extra year with Zalgiris came a season which has served a springboard for Jokubaitis, showcasing what he could do in a larger setting with a larger role, his minutes increasing from 13 per game to 20 as he played in 74 games last season, 31 coming in the Euroleague, including five starts there.
