Lobo hoops: Last year’s reserve Jenkins is this year’s co-captain

There’s been plenty of chatter around Lobo basketball since the team last walked off the court in March at the Mountain West Conference tournament.

Media and fans have been buzzing largely about one of two primary story lines: The return of two all-league guards and the addition of two veteran front-court players tasked with shifting the Lobos’ identity from soft and small to big and physical.

Maybe you’ve also heard about the promising freshman Donovan Dent, voted the 2022 Mr. California en route to leading his nationally ranked high school to another state championship.

Not much, if any, talk has been about senior guard KJ Jenkins.
