Daniss Jenkins finished Sunday’s Game 7 loss to the Cavaliers with 17 points (4-of-12 FGs, 7-of-8 FTs), three rebounds, five assists and two three-pointers.

Jenkins started the final three games of the series, scoring at least 15 points in each. It wasn’t enough to push Detroit into the conference finals, but his performances were a positive to take into the offseason. During the regular season, Jenkins played well enough to earn a standard contract that includes a $4 million team option for 2026-27. Fantasy-wise, Jenkins was most valuable when the Pistons were shorthanded on the perimeter, especially when Cade Cunningham missed time. Due to Detroit’s need for supplementary playmaking, Jenkins could be worth taking a flier on in the late rounds of drafts in deeper leagues if he returns to the Motor City.
