Not a scout, by any means, but DJ looks like an NBA player.

Super, you're probably correct, but he reminds me of Jai Morant, game and size.

And from what I heard he came very close to returning to Iona. We would have another NBA graduate. Speaking of graduation, the unspoken story is how the hell he graduated by August when it wasn’t from Iona? Pitino obviously did his magic here.

Siena counts Pickett, Hofstra will count Estrada. It's actually a selling point. Be a star here before you get the bag at a bigger school and have a shot at the NBA.

Just watched the first half of Detroit-Houston game. Detroit up 37-36, and DJ has 18 of the Detroit points. Also, looks like he's added a few pounds.
Game is on the NBA channel.
P.S. Shepherd the #3 pick in the Draft has eight points.

Detroit, 87-73. DJ, 26 minutes, 27 points. Shepard, 36 minutes, 15 points. I might have reversed DJ's points and minutes.

Super, nice find. In his next to most recent game, he didn't have a great shooting game, but did lead the team in plus/minus rating with a +13.

Detroit newspaper review of Pistons summer league to date: www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nba/pistons/2024/07/20/detroit-pistons-at-summer-league-ron-holland-makes-impact-on-both-ends/74479266007/Daniss Jenkins bring shotmaking, defense as two-way guard Jenkins was the Pistons' lone signed two-way player following the 2024 draft, and one of just four players on their Summer League team signed through next season. The 6-4 guard showed why, delivering three noteworthy performances in Vegas.
He sparked a comeback win over the Houston Rockets on Monday, putting up 26 points, four assists and two blocks while knocking down six of 11 3s. On Tuesday, he helped lead another comeback, this time over the Chicago Bulls, with 13 points, four assists, two steals and a block. That followed his debut against the Philadelphia 76ers last Saturday, when he finished with 10 points, five assists and three steals.
Jenkins was a standout in the Big East last season, averaging 14.9 points, 5.4 assists and 1.6 steals as a senior to lead St. John’s to its first conference semifinal since 2000. His winding college journey started at Pacific, where he played for two seasons before transferring to Iona, and then St. John’s.
The 22-year-old improved each year in college, and is now on the NBA radar after a promising Summer League debut. He was among the Pistons’ best defenders and showed that he can knock down outside shots, leading the team in attempts per game and hitting them at a 41.2% clip.
