Highlights from Brandon Jennings' Wisconsin Herd career



Brandon Jennings continues to play well for the Milwaukee Bucks, averaging 6.9 PPG, 4.3 APG, and 2.4 RPG in 16.0 minutes per game (7 games), and recently signed a second 10-day contract with the team.

Prior to joining the Bucks, the veteran point guard excelled in his return to the NBA G League, appearing in seven games for the Herd and averaging 21.4 PPG, 8.0 APG and 5.0 RPG in 37.0 minutes per game.

Here are some highlights from Brandon Jennings' short yet spectacular career with the Herd:

Jennings scores 31 points in Herd debut


In his Herd debut on February 21, Jennings delivered an electric performance, scoring 31 points on 11-of-21 shooting (5-of-12 from downtown) and dishing out 8 assists.



Back-to-back 29-pointers


Jennings followed up his 31-point debut with a pair of 29-point performances, scoring from all over the court and getting to the free throw line at a Harden-esque rate.

The former first-round NBA draft pick made 15-of-18 free throws against the Long Island Nets on February 23, and 9-of-10 FT against the Raptors 905 two days later.



Jennings goes for 25 PTS and 10 AST vs. 87ers


In his penultimate game with the Herd, on March 5, Jennings posted a double-double with 25 points (five threes) and 10 assists while helping the team to a 127-123 victory over the Delaware 87ers.
