Concepts underlying the Enskog kinetic theory of hard-spheres are applied toinclude short-range correlation effects in a model for transport coefficientsof strongly coupled plasmas. The approach is based on an extension of theeffective potential transport theory [S.~D.~Baalrud and J.~Daligault,Phys.~Rev.~Lett.~{\bf 110}, 235001 (2013)] to include an exclusion radiussurrounding individual charged particles that is associated with Coulombrepulsion. This is obtained by analogy with the finite size of hard spheres inEnskog's theory. Predictions for the self-diffusion and shear viscositycoefficients of the one-component plasma are tested against molecular dynamicssimulations. The theory is found to accurately capture the kineticcontributions to the transport coefficients, but not the potentialcontributions that arise at very strong coupling ($\Gamma \gtrsim 30$).Considerations related to a first-principles generalization of Enskog's kineticequation to continuous potentials are also discussed.
