Pistons President of Basketball Operations Trajan Langdon says he plans to convert two-way guard Daniss Jenkins to a standard NBA contract by Monday, Feb. 9 <\/p>\n
As a two-way player, Jenkins is allowed 50 games as an active roster player before he must be converted to a standard contract or sent back to the G-League. Jenkins was unavailable in the Pistons\u2019 game against the Wizards on Feb. 5 but is available against the Knicks on Feb. 6, which is his 50th game on the roster. <\/p>\n
Langdon spoke to media before the Pistons\u2019 game against the New York Knicks, clarifying trade deadline moves and what the plan is for Jenkins\u2019 contract.<\/p>\n
\u201cObviously everybody knows this is his 50th game and his last game on his two-way so we\u2019re having conversations with his agent about what that looks like going forward,\u201d said Langdon. \u201cWe\u2019ll convert him over the weekend, and he\u2019ll be a roster player in our game against Charlotte, at least that\u2019s the goal, that\u2019s the hope for the weekend after this game.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jenkins has made the most of his opportunity on the roster as a backup point guard, averaging 8 PPG, 3 AST on 42% shooting from the field and 39% from three point range. <\/p>\n
According to reports, Jenkins refused a two-year minimum deal prior to the trade deadline. Jenkins will likely be signed for the remainder of the year and weigh his options as a free agent during the off-season. <\/p>\n
