15 minutes According to sources, if he continues with such a good game, R. Jokubaitis may claim an even bigger call-up next season. This year, Žalgiris could look forward to an invite in the second round of the newcomer exchange.
R. Jokubaitis ‘chances at the 2021 NBA Rookie Trade will be enhanced by the defenders’ narrow talent pool, which will be extremely wide at the 2020 NBA Rookie Trade. Lithuania is also one of the Brightest talents Europe will be able to offer to the 2021 exchange of newcomers. The potential opportunity to appear in NBA team reviews in the summer, which the basketball player did not have due to this year’s pandemic, may also add a plus.
A. Jokubaitis may withdraw his application to participate in the NBA Rookie Trade again next year. In that case, the 2022 Stock Exchange would be the last and an advocate could be called in automatically.
Per NBA rules, these requests can be withdrawn 10 days prior to the NBA Rookie Exchange. This year, it will be held remotely on November 18, so November 8 is the last day that basketball players have to submit the necessary documents to the NBA office.
15 minutes On Saturday, Marek Blaževičius and Arnas Velička announced that their applications to participate in the NBA Rookie Exchange had been withdrawn by two other Lithuanian talents.
R. Jokubaitis started the new Euroleague season perfectly. Excited by the victorious decisions at the beginning of the season in Piraeus, he won an average of 20 minutes of play in the Euroleague. 7.4 points (61.1% double, 44.4% trit.), 2 rebounds, 3 assists and 9.6 utility points.

15 minutes According to sources, Jokubaitis received excellent ratings from NBA scouts, and ESPN placed him in the top 50 of potential rookie calls before the deadline.
“As for the rookie trade strategy, I don’t know … The NBA rookie trade moved from June to November, which changes everything. I didn’t get a chance to perform for NBA teams at the summer, and that national team camp didn’t show much … – after the victory in Piraeus 15 minutes R. Jokubaitis said. – We will continue to talk with the agent, but the Euroleague season has started and nothing of that if I withdraw the application and submit it next year. There have been quite a few of those conversations and those teams will already know how things are going here. I don’t know yet, but in the back of my mind I have decided that we should try it next year. “
It’s true that in the week of the decision, the 193cm tall Žalgiris player was no longer so sure of his choice.
“I thought I would try it next year. But now the news (ESPN rating – aut.) Came from the clear sky, – said R. Jokubaitis on the LRT program” Labas rytas, Lietuva. “- We still have until the 8th. November to withdraw the application. We will talk with the family, the agent, how to do better here. It will be an interesting period, now I have a lot of free time at home to reflect. I think we will decide it together with the people close to us. “
In theory, other Lithuanian basketball players born in 1998 can be invited to the NBA rookie trade on November 18. At the beginning of this generation, Gytis Masiulis and Tadas Sedekerskis were selected as the truest contenders. Admittedly, their names are not on the NBA’s rookie stock forecast this year.
