Jenkins returns for Idaho in D-League Showcase
Hawks guard John Jenkins had two points for Idaho in a 116-95 loss to Oklahoma City in a NBA Development League Showcase game Saturday in Santa Cruz, Calif.
Jenkins played for the first time since suffering a mild left hamstring strain last week that caused him to miss two games on his current assignment. The 2012 first-round pick was 1 of 4 from the field with three rebounds and one assist in 17 minutes.
Jenkins returned to the Hawks earlier this week to be re-evaluated before rejoining Idaho.
Jenkins is playing for Idaho, the D-League affiliate of the Jazz, via the flexible assignment rule. Idaho will next play Fort Wayne, the Hawks’ shared affiliate, Monday at 6:30 p.m. eastern.
