Gjorgji "Stanko" Čekovski (Macedonian: Ѓорѓи Чековски; born December 11, 1979) is a Macedonian professional basketball player who plays for Rabotnički of the Macedonian First League. He was also a member of the Macedonian national basketball team.

Macedonian national team

Čekovski is also a member of the Macedonian national basketball team. He competed with the team at Eurobasket 2011 and helped the team to a fourth-place finish, its best ever performance at the continental championship. In the group game against Greece, he was one of the heroes, scoring 11 points including three three-pointers and playing great defense to secure the win.

At the Eurobasket 2013, Čekovski suffered a muscle tear in the second game of the group stage against Lithuania, which was the end of the tournament for the power forward. Macedonia sorely missed Čekovski's presence, as the team ended in last place in the Group B.
