What’s that? A glimmer of hope shining through the dark thunderheads that currently loom over Madison Square Garden? Indeed—and that narrow slice of optimism came to us this week from across the Atlantic Ocean, courtesy of Knicks draftee and Barcelona point guard, Rokas Jokubaitis.
As a refresher, Rokas (6’4, 194 lbs) was selected 34th in the 2021 draft by the Oklahoma City Thunder. Subsequently, the Knicks acquired the draft rights to Jokubaitis and Deuce McBride in exchange for the rights to Jeremiah Robinson-Earl.
