David Jenkins Jr - The Jump Shot Travels

Coach Matt Painter struck out on his preferred transfer over the summer, but who he found might have been the perfect fit all along. Jenkins Jr. showed a steady hand off the bench, and a sharp shooter's touch on the court.

With freshman all over the court, Jenkins Jr.'s nearly 3500 minutes of experience and 782 three point attempts will lead a talented bench unit when waters get choppy.

But Coach Painter is just starting to see a guard learning and willing to take over games and play more of a point guard position. Big things could be coming from the Utah transfer.
