In his first two seasons at Villanova, Kris Jenkins was an important role player for the Wildcats. Now, in his third season, he has become a staple in Jay Wright’s starting lineup and one of the team’s most valuable offensive weapons.
Jenkins has earned a reputation as a spot-up shooter who does the bulk of his scoring from three-point range. During his first two seasons, 75 percent of his field goal attempts have been from distance.
Based on his statistics, Jenkins’ junior season does not appear to be any different. He leads the team in three-point attempts, which account for just over 72 percent of the shots he has taken this season.
