Jenkins closed Saturday's 116-93 victory over Philadelphia with 16 points (4-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-7 FT), four rebounds, 14 assists, one block and one steal in 31 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins continues to impress, recording his third double-double of the season. With Cade Cunningham (chest) still sidelined, Jenkins has certainly made the most of his opportunity. In eight appearances over the past two weeks, he has averaged 19.9 points, 4.4 rebounds, 8.0 assists and 2.3 three-pointers.

Jenkins posted 26 points (9-19 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds and eight assists across 37 minutes during Thursday's 113-108 win over the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins continues to roll on the offensive end, as he led the Pistons in scoring on the way to a hard-fought victory. He's posted 20-plus points in back-to-back games and continues to put up strong numbers across the board while running with the first unit, which is where he'll remain until Cade Cunningham (chest) is cleared to return.

Jenkins finished Tuesday's 127-116 win over the Raptors with 21 points (5-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 9-9 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one block over 37 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins attempted just nine shots from the field, but he still reached the 20-point threshold for the sixth time this season thanks to his work at the charity stripe, where he logged career highs in both made and attempted free throws. Jenkins saw his role off the Pistons' bench steadily increase as the season progressed, and he has thrived in a starting role while filling in for the injured Cade Cunningham (chest). Jenkins has started in each of the Pistons' last eight games, and over that span he has averaged 18.5 points, 6.9 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 2.1 threes over 36.2 minutes per game.

Jenkins notched 15 points (7-17 FG, 1-5 3Pt), four rebounds, six assists and two steals across 36 minutes during Monday's 114-110 overtime loss to the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins continues to fill in effectively for the injured Cade Cunningham (chest) in the Pistons' starting lineup. The second-year guard has averaged 19.7 points, 7.5 assists, 4.7 rebounds and 2.2 three-pointers in 36.5 minutes per tilt in his last six games, essentially making Jenkins a must-roster player as the fantasy season winds down.

Jenkins supplied 19 points (6-12 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, nine assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Thursday's 129-108 win over New Orleans.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins has supplied the Pistons with plenty of offensive firepower since entering the starting lineup. He's put up 19 or more points in four of five starts since stepping into the first unit for Cade Cunningham (chest), and he's done so by also finding his teammates for buckets. Jenkins is averaging 19.8 points, 3.6 rebounds and 8.0 assists during this five-game stretch.

Jenkins totaled 19 points (6-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 6-8 FT), three rebounds, 10 assists and one steal over 45 minutes during Wednesday's 130-129 overtime loss to the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
While Jenkins did do a nice job of handing out the dimes, he also set a new career high in turnovers and was responsible for nearly half of Detroit's giveaways in the one-point defeat. The Pistons weren't able to keep their win streak alive Wednesday, but they'll look to get things back on track Thursday against the Pelicans.

Jenkins finished Monday's 113-110 win over the Lakers with 30 points (11-18 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight assists and four rebounds over 39 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
In his third straight start in the absence of Cade Cunningham (chest), Jenkins scored 10 of a career-high 30 points in the fourth quarter, highlighted by his mid-range jumper with 24.6 seconds left in the frame to put the Pistons up for good. After playing 3.3 minutes per game across seven NBA outings last year, Jenkins is thriving in an expanded role due to Cunningham's absence; the former had a similar stretch in mid-November, when he averaged 19.3 points, 8.8 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.8 threes and 1.5 steals over 34.5 minutes across four consecutive starts. That might be the kind of production to expect out of Jenkins for at least the next two weeks, or until Cunningham is cleared to return.

Jenkins supplied 22 points (7-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-7 FT), eight assists, seven rebounds and one steal across 38 minutes in Friday's 115-101 win over the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
Getting the start for a second consecutive contest in the absence of Cade Cunningham (chest), Jenkins turned in an efficient overall shooting performance and was Detroit's second-leading scorer. The 24-year-old guard also led all players in assists and rebounds, finishing one board shy of tying his career high. Jenkins has played heavy minutes over the last two games and may continue to see starter-level minutes for the remainder of the campaign, as Cunningham won't be re-evaluated for another two weeks.

Jenkins supplied nine points (3-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one block in 34 minutes during Thursday's 117-95 victory over Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Jenkins had a rough showing during his move into the starting group, but the minutes and usage were very encouraging. That's likely to continue due to Cade Cunningham (chest) being out indefinitely. In nine starts this season, Jenkins has averaged 14.1 points, 6.8 assists, 2.8 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 1.3 three-pointers.
