Jenkins
Six-foot combo guard Janeil Jenkins wants to “make a big impact” on the Eastern Canadian Basketball League. The 30 year-old native of Jacksonville, Florida native quickly adds the significant impact should be felt on and off the basketball court.
“I think I can help my team and I think I can help my community,” Jenkins says. “I am the kind of player who works hard every night and my goals are team-minded on offense and defense,” he continues. “When I am not playing, I like to talk to kids and tell them anything is possible if they put the work in.”
Jenkins has agreed to join the new Eastern Canadian Basketball League.
“I’m looking forward to getting there because I am hearing a lot of good comments about how competitive the league is going to be and how the fans are very supportive,” Jenkins said.
Jenkins played as a freshman in the Big South Conference with The Citadel Bulldogs in South Carolina before transferring to the Presbyterian College Blue Hose, also in South Carolina, where he majored in political science and business.
He attended a couple of NBA G League training camps and suited up for the Island Storm of the National Basketball League of Canada.
“I’m looking forward to getting to Canada and getting another shot at professional basketball – I’m going to make the most of it,” Jenkins says.
