Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Scores 18 in 20 minutes
Jenkins had 18 points (6-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 20 minutes during Sunday's 130-77 win over Brooklyn.
Jenkins finished with his second-best scoring night of the calendar year against Brooklyn in a monster blowout victory. He needed only nine field-goal attempts to notch 18 points in a highly efficient effort. It's hard for Jenkins to consistently deliver these kinds of nights given Detroit's depth, but he is certainly capable of filling up the stat sheet at a high level on occasion.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Retreats to bench
Jenkins is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Rockets, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
Cade Cunningham (hip/illness) will retake his place in the first unit Friday. Jenkins has averaged 9.5 points, 5.5 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 19.3 minutes per contest over his last six games off the bench.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Starting for Cunningham
Jenkins is part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.
Cade Cunningham (illness) won't play Wednesday, and his absence has opened up a spot for Jenkins in the starting lineup. In six total starts this season, Jenkins is averaging 15.0 points, 7.2 assists and 3.5 rebounds across 31.5 minutes. However, in the two starts he's made while Jaden Ivey has been healthy, Jenkins has averaged 6.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 4.0 assists across 25.5 minutes. Ivey, of course, will be available Wednesday night.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Career high in assists Wednesday
Jenkins accumulated two points (1-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt), 15 assists, six rebounds and one steal across 28 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 108-93 win over Chicago.
The 15 dimes were a career high for Jenkins, as he took on more distribution duties with Cade Cunningham (wrist) unavailable. Jenkins has played at least 23 minutes with the second unit in three straight games, averaging 13.0 points, 8.0 assists, 2.7 three-pointers and 2.3 boards in 25.3 minutes with that increased workload. However, with Caris LeVert (knee) returning from a four-game absence Wednesday and with Cunningham not expected to miss much more additional time, if any, Jenkins could see his minutes fall steadily in the near future.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Sees 23 minutes in blowout win
Jenkins ended Monday's 121-90 win over the Knicks with 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt), four assists, two blocks and one steal over 23 minutes.
Jenkins added another solid performance with 12 points and a season-high two blocks in Monday's blowout win over the Knicks. The 24-year-old played the entire fourth quarter with the game in control and has now played at least 23 minutes in back-to-back games after averaging just 8.7 minutes in the previous 10 contests. The second-year guard has played well when given the opportunity, but he has been a smaller piece of Detroit's rotation recently.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Erupts for 25 in Sunday's win
Jenkins racked up 25 points (7-10 FG, 6-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), one rebound and five assists across 25 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 114-110 win over the Cavaliers.
Most of the second-year guard's production came in the second quarter, when Jenkins popped for 21 points to help build a 10-point lead going into halftime. It was his best scoring performance of the season from the second unit, topped only by a 26-point effort in a spot start Nov. 17 against the Pacers. Moreover, his six made three-pointers were a career high. Jenkins has struggled to earn a consistent role in the Detroit rotation, but Sunday's showing should help solidify his spot in the backcourt.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Diminished role continues
Jenkins accumulated zero points (0-2 FG) and one rebound in three minutes during Monday's 112-105 win over the Celtics.
Jenkins logged fewer than five minutes for the second time in the past three games, continuing his recent downward trend. With Detroit now fielding a largely healthy lineup, Jenkins is simply being phased out of the rotation. While he has likely done enough to at least touch the floor on most nights, there is no reason to be holding him outside of deeper fantasy leagues. In five games over the past two weeks, Jenkins has averaged just 4.2 points in 11.7 minutes per game.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Bumped back to bench
Jenkins isn't part of the starting lineup for Friday's game against Portland.
Jenkins will come off the bench Friday now that Duncan Robinson (ankle) is healthy. Jenkins should still see some run off the bench. He scored seven and six points, respectively, during his two starts sans Robinson.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Starting Monday
Jenkins will start Monday against the Hawks, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
With Duncan Robinson (ankle) sidelined, Jenkins will rejoin the starting five. In his previous four starts this season, the two-way player averaged 19.3 points, 8.8 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.5 steals across 34.5 minutes per contest.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Not starting Saturday
Jenkins is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup with Milwaukee.
Jenkins played phenomenally as a fill-in starter while the Pistons were banged up, but with Cade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey active, Jenkins' minutes could start dwindling. As a reserve this season, Jenkins owns averages of 6.8 points and 1.5 assists in 13.4 minutes per game.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Sticks in starting lineup
Jenkins finished with 14 points (6-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 victory over the Hawks.
Despite the return of Cade Cunningham and Ausar Thompson, Jenkins remained in the starting lineup Tuesday. While there are certainly more mouths to feed in Detroit now that the roster is getting healthier, Jenkins was once again productive on both ends of the floor. His run as a standard-league fantasy asset could come to an end in the near future, especially if Thompson moves back into the starting lineup, and when Jaden Ivey (knee) and Tobias Harris (ankle) return from their respective injuries.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Nets 26 points with eight assists
Jenkins produced 26 points (11-21 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, eight assists, one steal and four turnovers in 33 minutes during Monday's 127-112 win over the Pacers.
The Pistons have now won 10 in a row, and Jenkins has played a key role ever since being inserted into the rotation four games ago. He's pumping out averages of 21.8 points, 7.8 assists, 4.3 rebounds, 2.5 triples and 2.0 steals per contest over that four-game stretch, making him a must-roster player in fantasy leagues.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Nets 19 points with eight dimes
Jenkins chipped in 19 points (6-15 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, eight assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Friday's 114-105 victory over Philadelphia.
Jenkins has been on quite a roll over the past three, posting impressive averages of 20.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 7.7 assists, 3.0 triples, 2.3 steals and just 2.3 turnovers per contest. Despite Detroit missing key contributors, the Pistons extended their win streak to nine games Friday night, which prompted head coach J.B. Bickerstaff to refer to his guys as "nasty dogs" after the game. When Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press asked Jenkins about his coach's comments, he responded: "We're all nasty dogs, nasty boys, whatever you want to call it. We're mutts. You don't want a mutt in the house, nobody likes mutts."

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Dream run continues
Jenkins ended Wednesday's 124-113 victory over the Bulls with 18 points (9-19 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, 12 assists and two steals over 40 minutes.
Jenkins continued his fairytale run, leading the Pistons to an improbable victory. Fresh off a career-best performance earlier in the week, Jenkins moved into the starting lineup, replacing Cade Cunningham, who was ruled out due to a hip injury. Jenkins filled in admirably, dishing out 12 assists, ironically, the same amount he had dished out across his entire career up until Wednesday. Should Cunningham be forced to miss further time, Jenkins could make for a viable streaming consideration.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Starting sans Cunningham
Jenkins will start Wednesday's game against the Bulls.
With Cade Cunningham (hip) sidelined, Jenkins will get the starting nod for the first time in his career. The two-way player is coming off a career-best performance in Monday's overtime win over the Wizards, during which he posted 24 points (9-17 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, four steals and three assists across 34 minutes.

Pistons' Daniss Jenkins: Erupts for career-high 24 points
Jenkins racked up 24 points (9-17 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and four steals across 34 minutes during Monday's 137-135 overtime win over Washington.
Jenkins came out of nowhere while recording a career-high 24 points while also adding four steals. In what was perhaps the most surprising performance of the season thus far, Jenkins stepped into a much larger role with a number of key personnel sidelined with injuries. His total of 24 points matched what he had put up across his entire career to this point. He could be worth a look for streaming purposes, but only if the Pistons remain banged up.
