Crafty ball handler, makes up for relatively slow feet with a tactful use of hands, and made a lot of surprisingly smart decisions on both ends. Also, both guys play with their feet virtually glued to the court, like they wear lead boots.
Anyway, he’s got a style of play that is easy to get behind and root for. All of the picks do, really.
Hopefully we keep Rokas for his eventual NBA debut, but he definitely showed enough promise to be a legitimate toss-in asset in lieu of another pick if a big trade comes up.
Knicks are back, posters are back!
