  • Jenkins logged 14 points (6-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three assists, two rebounds and two steals across 24 minutes in Wednesday's 97-89 win over Charlotte. With Ausar Thompson shedding his probable tag to suit up Wednesday, Jenkins came off the bench for a second straight game. The 25-year-old was productive, scoring in double figures for a fourth consecutive contest while bouncing back from a 1-for-6 shooting performance from downtown in the front end of this back-to-back set. He also tallied a season-high mark in steals.

  • Jenkins is not listed in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Knicks. Jenkins started in Sunday's 106-93 win over the 76ers, finishing with 18 points, eight rebounds, six assists and one block across 38 minutes of action. With Ausar Thompson (ankle) back from a one-game layoff, Jenkins will return to the bench.

  • Jenkins finished with six points (2-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four assists, three rebounds and one block across 16 minutes in Wednesday's 128-106 preseason win over Minnesota. After scoring 12 points in 18 minutes as a starter Saturday, Jenkins had a quieter scoring outing in a reserve role Wednesday. The St. John's product emerged as a key role player last season, averaging 9.3 points, 3.9 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 20.2 minutes across 72 regular-season appearances (19 starts). Heading into the 2026-27 campaign, Jenkins is positioned to serve as the primary backup to star point guard Cade Cunningham.

  • Jenkins is in the starting lineup for Saturday's preseason game against the Wizards, Coty M. Davis of The Detroit News reports. The Pistons won't start Cade Cunningham in Saturday's preseason contest, meaning Jenkins will get the nod at point guard. The former St. John's standout is expected to operate as Cunningham's backup as long as he stays healthy, so he'll get the chance to run with the first-team offense in this game. He averaged 9.3 points and 3.9 assists per game across 72 contests (19 starts) in the 2025-26 regular season.

  • The Pistons exercised their 2026-27 team option for Jenkins on Monday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports. This was basically a formality for the Pistons at $4 million. Jenkins was upgraded to a standard contract last season after a string of impressive performances. Across 72 regular-season games, he averaged 9.3 points, 3.9 assists and 2.3 rebounds on 40.8 percent shooting from the field, though he may face competition for backup backcourt minutes from rookie first-round pick Ebuka Okorie.
