Lithuanian swingman Rokas Giedraitis is expected to stay with Baskonia for next season, according to a report from Encestando. Despite interest from the NBA, in fact, so far Giedraitis hasn't received the type of offer that would convince him to get out of his contract with Baskonia, which will expire in 2023.

Giedraitis has a $1 million buyout in his contract with the Spanish club and paying that amount of money without the guarantee of a fully guaranteed contract from the NBA it's unlikely at the moment. The Lithuanian player averaged 13.4 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.6 assists per game last season while shooting 37% from three-point.

If Giedraitis will indeed remain with the Spanish club, Baskonia will focus on the market to replace the departures of Jekiri and Diop in the frontcourt.
