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.

Impact Jenkins came out of nowhere, 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 on the sideline. 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.

Adds value off bench Jenkins finished with nine points (4-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt), five assists and three steals over 22 minutes during Monday's 116-95 loss to the Cavaliers.

Impact Jenkins turned in a polished shooting line despite limited opportunities. He shouldered a heavier workload than usual likely due to Marcus Sasser (hip) and Caris LeVert (hamstring) both being ruled out prior to tipoff, as Jenkins had previously logged 15 total minutes across his first two appearances of the new campaign. He also produced on the defensive end by racking up three steals. Jenkins could continue to get extended looks as a reserve until the Pistons get healthier in the backcourt.

Impact Despite his poor shooting display from the field, Jenkins distributed a game-high 10 dimes while also recording a double-double.
