In a thrilling development for West Virginia University basketball fans, 4-star point guard Amir Jenkins has announced his commitment to the Mountaineers, reclassifying from the 2026 class to join the team for the 2025-26 season. The 6-foot-2 playmaker from Worcester, Massachusetts, brings a dynamic skill set, a winning mentality, and a bright future to Morgantown, marking a significant coup for new head coach Ross Hodge as he builds his roster.
A top 100 player in the 2026 class, Jenkins chose WVU over several good programs; including but not limited to power four schools such as Boston College, Mississippi State, and Maryland.
During his junior season, Jenkins shined, averaging an impressive 22.8 points, 5.1 assists, 3.7 rebounds, and 2.3 steals per game.
