Detroit — Daniss Jenkins’ cool-down Monday night was different from anything he had experienced with the Detroit Pistons. With an ice pack wrapped around his right knee inside Little Caesars Arena, Jenkins sat at his locker after a career-best performance.
He had recorded 24 points, eight rebounds, four steals and three assists to lift the Pistons to a 137-135 overtime victory over the Washington Wizards. The pinnacle of his night came during the final seconds of regulation when Jenkins nailed the game-tying 3-point field goal after coach J.B. Bickerstaff’s original plan faltered.
