Daniss Jenkins Fantasy Stats

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, Detroit Pistons guard Daniss Jenkins agreed to a two-year deal with the club. The 24-year-old went undrafted in 2024 and has been operating on two-way contracts with Detroit ever since. He played sparingly as a rookie. However, it's been a different story this season, with Jenkins averaging 15.3 points, 6.7 assists, and 1.1 steals in seven starts. With Jaden Ivey no longer in the picture, Jenkins should remain in line for a stable role from off the bench. He'll also presumably continue to start when necessary. With that said, unless Jenkins is with the first-five, he's hard to trust as a starting fantasy option on a day-to-day basis.

According to Keith Smith of Spotrac.com, forward Daniss Jenkins agreed to a two-way contract with the Detroit Pistons on Sunday. Jenkins played in just seven regular-season Pistons games during last year's NBA campaign. He spent most of 2024-25 in the G League with the Motor City Cruise, averaging 18.5 points, 6.1 assists, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.4 steals across 35.7 minutes per contest during 47 outings. The 23-year-old won't factor into fantasy as he will likely spend most of 2025-26 once again in the G League.

Detroit Pistons guard Daniss Jenkins erupted for 26 points in Monday's 87-73 Summer League win against the Houston Rockets. The St. John's product nailed more triples (6) than the Rockets combined (5) and finished 8-for-16 overall from the field while netting all four free throws. He grabbed three rebounds, handed out four assists, and made valuable plays defensively by logging a steal and two blocks. Jenkins went undrafted last month but landed himself a two-way deal with the Pistons. He will likely need to settle for G League action in 2024-25, with Detroit's backcourt looking fairly crowded.
