Rockmann began his career in his hometown in the second highest German division, before he also made his debut in the German top division basketball Bundesliga in 2011 with Phoenix Hagen after a two-year study visit to the United States . After further positions in the second highest division ProA , Rockmann returned to the top division with the Crailsheim Merlins in 2014, before he left the club after the first half of the season and moved back to the second division, where he played in the ProA 2015/16 for the old master USC MLP Academics Heidelberg played.

Career

In the first year of the junior basketball league (NBBL), Rockmann played for the junior team of the first division club Alba Berlin, which at the time missed out on the NBBL Top Four . In addition, the former youth international was active in the men's second division team of the then cooperation partner TuS Lichterfelde, also abbreviated TuSLi, for which he played his first four appearances in the 2nd Bundesliga 2006/07 in the group north of the second highest German division would have. After the league in the third from last place in the table, the light fields were sorted into the third highest division ProB in the following reclassification according to hierarchical instead of geographical aspects . In the ProB 2007/08 , the TuSLi with Rockmann, who was now regularly used for the men after the age-appropriate end of his NBBL career, only just missed relegation and was relegated to the regional league . A year later Rockmann decided to study in the United States , where he attended the University of Missouri-Kansas City for the college team Kangaroos at that time in the NCAA - Conference The Summit League played. After only five missions in his first season, Rockmann was regularly used as a sophomore , but without being able to convince with his individual statistics. Since the Kangaroos missed a qualification for a nationwide "NCAA postseason tournament" even during Rockmann's season , his studies in the USA remained without any particular highlights and after two years in 2011 he decided to return to Germany.

Back in Germany, Rockmann got a contract with the first division club Phoenix from Hagen , for which he made 21 appearances in the basketball Bundesliga 2011/12 with an average of just over five minutes per game. The Hagen team managed to stay fourth from last and Rockmann moved back to the second division to the BasCats from Cuxhaven . In the second-highest division ProA 2012/13 , the Cuxhaven-based managed to move into the play-offs for promotion to fifth place in the main round , in which, however, they were eliminated in the first round. Rockmann's share of the game in Cuxhaven had risen to over 25 minutes per game and he was also able to contribute significantly to the team's success with over eight points per game. For the following ProA 2013/14 season , Rockmann moved to southern Germany for the first time and was signed by league rival VfL Knights from Kirchheim unter Teck , who, as a previous ProA runner-up in 2012, only managed to stay in the league thanks to a wildcard in 2013. With more than eleven points per game and a significantly improved hit rate when throwing from behind the three-point line , Rockmann was able to help that the Knights improved significantly in the 2013/14 season and only narrowly failed to make it into the play-offs in tenth place. Rockmann was then committed by ProA runner-up and first division promoted Merlins from Crailsheim , for whom he had a further 14 first division appearances in the first half of the 2014/15 basketball Bundesliga , with his game shares being limited to less than an average of ten minutes per game. Rockmann then left after the end of his fixed-term contract the promoted team, who at that time had only won two games as bottom of the table.

After his contract with the Merlins ended at the beginning of 2015, Rockmann switched back to the ProA to the newcomer Towers from Hamburg , who reached the eighth place in the main round and immediately made it into the play-offs for promotion. There they lost significantly in the first round against the former first division relegated and main round first s.Oliver Baskets Würzburg. For the following ProA 2015/16 Rockmann switched to league competitor MLP Academics from Heidelberg , where he replaced the outgoing team captain Nico Adamczak , who was also born in Berlin.

After the end of the 2015/16 season, Rockmann left Heidelberg and signed a contract with Artland Dragons Quakenbrück from the 2nd Bundesliga ProB . There he became team captain, in summer 2018 he moved up with the Lower Saxony team as part of a license transfer to the 2nd Bundesliga ProA. In November 2018, Rockmann left Lower Saxony and returned to Kirchheim.

In the summer break of 2019 he moved to the regional league team Baskets Wolmirstedt and was presented there as "Königstransfer".
