Jenkins bullied defenders to the basket and finished on contact. Jenkins is a relentless WARRIOR on the floor and just plays the game at a high level. Jenkins averaged 20 ppg for the 1st day of action. Jenkins a soft spoken young man plays the game so much effort at all times. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2020/07/AC34B4BD-32F5-4DDC-BBEE-FCCBB509E3FC.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1013325" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2020/07/AC34B4BD-32F5-4DDC-BBEE-FCCBB509E3FC-300x197.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="746968" first="Jacobi" last="Wright"] - Tea Marie - Legacy Early College </strong></p> <p>Wright #3 player in the Palmetto State 2021 Class is here playing with Tea Marie.
