Fantasy Impact

Daniss Jenkins had his $4 million team option exercised for next season by the Pistons.
Fantasy Impact
Jenkins took on a larger role late last season into the postseason. He'll figure to remain in a similar reserve role heading into next season.
Daniss Jenkins put up 26 points (9-19 FG, 2-2 3PT, 6-7 FT), eight assists, and five rebounds in Thursday's win over the Timberwolves.
Fantasy Impact
Jenkins continues to excel since taking over at the point for Cade Cunningham (lung) a few weeks ago. Over nine straight starts in place of Cunningham, Jenkins has averaged 19.3 points, 7.0 assists, and 4.4 rebounds per game. Cunningham is set to be reevaluated in one week.
Jenkins started Monday and finished with 15 points (7-of-17 FGs), six assists, four rebounds, two steals, and one three-pointer in the overtime loss to the Thunder.

Five turnovers were the main issue on an otherwise productive night — the scoring and facilitation were there, but the ball security will need to improve for the overall line to reach its potential.
Daniss Jenkins finished with 19 points (6-12 FG, 5-7 3PT, 2-2 FT) and nine assists in Thursday's win over the Pelicans.
Fantasy Impact
Jenkins finished just one assist shy of a second straight double-double Thursday night, as he has really stepped up his game with Cade Cunningham (lung) sidelined. Jenkins has taken over as the Pistons' starting point guard, putting up at least 19 points and eight assists in each of the last four games. Cunningham is most likely going to be out for the rest of the regular season, so Jenkins is pretty much a must-add player right now.
