According to Kevin Fernandez from SER Vitoria, Rogkavopoulos is in the final stages of his recovery and should be back in December.

The Greek player was dealing with a right calf injury that was initially projected to sideline Rogkavopoulos until Christmas. The 22-year-old might already be back during the EuroLeague's double week in rounds 12 and 13 on December 5-8, Fernandez notes.

Before picking up the injury, Rogkavopoulos played in four EuroLeague games, averaging 2.8 points and 1.2 rebounds for 2.2 PIR, and six games in the Spanish Liga Endesa, averaging 4.8 points and 2.8 rebounds for 4.3 PIR.

With five wins and four losses, Baskonia currently share fifth place with five other teams in the EuroLeague.
