Atlanta Hawks
John Jenkins receives interest from six teams
By Chris Vivlamore
July 2, 2015Hawks unrestricted free agent John Jenkins has received interest from as many as six teams, according to a person familiar with the situation. The shooting guard became a free agent after the Hawks opted not to pick up his option last season.
Jenkins was a first-round pick (No. 23 overall) of the Hawks in 2012. He was two-time First Team All-SEC at Vanderbilt. As a rookie, Jenkins averaged 6.1 points in 61 games. He was limited to 13 games last season for a back problem that eventually required surgery. Jenkins returned but played sparingly this season and averaged 5.6 points in 24 games. He shot .375 (78 of 208) from 3-point range during his career with the Hawks.
