Detroit Pistons head coach JB Bickerstaff talked about the high-level of confidence he’s seen from two-way guard Daniss Jenkins after Wednesday’s 124-113 home win vs. the Chicago Bulls (18 points/4 rebounds/12 assists/2 steals/9-19 FG/40 MP/+5 +/-).

(via Detroit Pistons):

“He’s got an unwavering belief in his abilities. You sit and talk to him — you can feel his presence as soon as he walks into the room — and it’s not phony. He is genuinely confident, but humble at the same time and he’s extremely talented. We’ve said it: we’re lucky to have him here in the position that he’s in. He’s an NBA player – I think the league knows that, but we’re lucky to have him here with us.”
