As one of the greatest late first rounders in NBN 2.0 history, Roko Prkacin is one of the most dominant offensive bigs in league history. Will this be enough for him to get into the NBN Hall of Fame?

Arguments For Induction
- In a league that has commonly struggled to produce high-end power forwards, Roko was very much just that. 9x All-Star, 7x All-Leaguer with two title victories and, unlike most other bigs, no real considerable drop off to mediocrity. Even in his final year, Roko posted 16/11 as a role player in Charlotte.
- His prime was DOMINANT. He was a guaranteed 20+ nightly with an incredibly high-level ability to grab boards, distribute the ball (4+ APG for the majority of his career), and even put up 2.5-3 stocks per game. Furthermore, he also shot the lights out of the ball, as a career 38% three point shooter in a league with very few stretch bigs of this magnitude. Not many did it better.
- As mentioned before, Roko turned out to be one of the biggest steals in NBN Draft history. Usually, prospects who go late in the first have holes, but Roko's game was legitimately great from the get go. While he was traded for another Hall of Famer in Giannis Antetokounmpo before the 2023 season began, Roko's career became much more than that, and frankly, I don't think we've seen more than a handful of bigs who were better players.
Arguments Against Induction
- Not sure it's a dealbreaker for anyone given his historic dominance, but he wasn't much of a stock defender compared to some of the other Hall of Fame nominees of this class. Usually, bigs don't get the love and respect they deserve if they can't grab boards.
- Only 3 POTW's and 1 POTM water down his achievements just a little bit.
- 95 greed! What a greedy player! Disgusting how we support players with this much GREED in a league in which they're making millions of dollars to play basketball. SAD!
Vote carefully, and remember to throw out arguments regardless of which side you're on. This should be a discussion that eventually gets the league to the proper decision on him. Your vote can also be retracted after it's been cast if you feel like switching to the other side based on the arguments that have been made. To be inducted, a player needs 70% and to be considered in a later class they need 50%. Vote carefully.
***BONUS - Don't forget that everyone who votes gets $100 and the person that makes the best argument or contributes to the discussion the best will be awarded an extra $100***
