Michael Jenkins (193 cm. Winthrop ’08) agrees to terms with Flexx Pistoia (Italy-Serie A). The 30-year-old guard is coming off a 19-game stint with Aris Thessaloniki (Greece-A1) this season. There, he averaged 9.9 ppg, 2.2 apg and 2.9 rpg in 22.7 mpg during A1 play. His team made it to the cup final this season. Aris found that Jenkins brought out his best game in Champions league competition. He averaged 11.7 ppg and 2.9 rpg in 24.0 mpg to help his team to an 8-6 record in Group A.

Jenkins will be making his return to Serie A. He played with Pallacanestro Cantu (Italy-Serie A) during the 2013/2014 season where he averaged 10.0 ppg and 2.4 rpg. The year prior to playing with Pallacanestro, Jenkins made his Italy debut with Centrale del Latte Brescia (Italy-Lega 2).

Now the American guard will be heading to a Flexx Pistoia team that currently sits in 12th in the Serie A standings. Their record, this season, is 10- 13 but will look to improve with the addition of Jenkins.
