Jacob Jenkins is one of the top young wing prospects in Virginia. The 6'4 sophomore recently transferred to Central Virginia powerhouse The Miller School of Albemarle, where he continues to showcase his high upside and advanced skill set. After playing up on the MADE Hoops circuit this summer with Team Loaded Black, Jenkins played a key role as a perimeter scorer and athlete who consistently made plays on both ends of the floor. Jenkins is a true two-way talent with significant room to grow physically, both in height and athleticism. He already plays above the rim in transition and the half court, showcasing his explosive leaping ability. Offensively, he plays with tremendous confidence and never hesitates to take shots from all three levels. His jumper is effortless, featuring great elevation, lower-body lift, and extension. He has proven capable of knocking down shots both off the catch and off the dribble. Jenkins pairs a tight handle with advanced footwork, using his timing, agility, and head fakes to create separation against defenders. When attacking the basket, he uses his length and springiness to stretch around defenders and finish through tight windows. Defensively, he has all the early indicators of a high-level perimeter defender, along with the potential to develop into an effective weakside rim protector. While he is not yet the most physical defender, he makes up for it with intelligent angles, sound timing, and the ability to anticipate his opponents' movements. As Jenkins begins his first season at The Miller School, expect him to continue developing into a more complete prospect at all levels. With his combination of size, shooting ability, athleticism, and two-way potential, Jenkins has all the tools to emerge as one of Virginia's premier young talents @Jacob_prod3 @MSAHoops @Colby_Drake @CoachMeriwether @CoachSBall @jwherron10 @ARosenfeldHoops @NorfolkKnights
