Julius Jenkins - Alba Berlin
Despite being located in one of the strongest and most balanced groups in this year's Last 16, Alba Berlin had a convincing start as one of just four unbeaten teams in this phase. A major reason for that success has been shooting guard Julius Jenkins, a Eurocup veteran in the prime of his career. Jenkins is currently the Last 16's top scorer with 21.5 points per game and has been Alba's go-to crunch-time scorer. His 6-for-6 free-throw accuracy in the final minute led Alba to a road win against Le Mans in Week 1. Then he scored 16 points as Alba kept its momentum going with a big home win against difficult DKV Joventut before 9,332 fans at o2 World in Berlin. Already in his fourth Eurocup season, Jenkins has been with Berlin since 2006 as his team's top gun. Jenkins is three points away from reaching the Eurocup's all-time Top 10 scoring list and has been around long enough to appreciate the competition like few others. "Winning the Eurocup title would mean a lot to me. I have been playing the competition since I was in Belgium," Jenkins told Eurocupbasketball.com. "It has been long time in this competition and winning the whole thing would be very big for me. It would also be very big for the club and my teammates."
