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.

Around the Herd: Xavier Munford excelling, James Young stays hot, Cliff Alexander's strong game, GPII and more

Herd Player of the Week Xavier Munford This honor goes to Xavier Munford for the second straight week. Munford continues to dazzle for the Herd, stuffing the stat sheet and delivering highlight-reel plays on a nightly basis. Munford posted a huge line -- 25 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals -- in the Herd's victory over the Blue last week. The 6'3" guard, acquired from the Greensboro Swarm via trade before the season, has displayed an uncanny ability to finish around the hoop, and his 3-point shooting has been scorching hot (52.7%) all year. Munford ranks 6th in the NBA G League in scoring average (24.3 points per game), and is a good bet to see time in the NBA sometime soon. His consistently excellent play for the Herd (and Team USA in the FIBA qualifiers) has shown me he can play at the next level.

Around the Herd: Checking in on Two-Way players, recent acquisitions, and more

Checking in on the Two-Way Players Both Two-Way players, Xavier Munford and Marshall Plumlee , have been splitting their time between the Bucks and the Herd recently. Xavier Munford scored his first bucket as a member of the Milwaukee Bucks on February 1 against the Minnesota Timberwolves. "Professor X" finished the game with three points and a steal in seven minutes. It was his second appearance in a Bucks uniform this season, first taking the court on January 20 against the Philadelphia 76ers. With the Herd, Munford continues to be one of the top players in the NBA G League this season. His eye-popping season averages -- 23.2 PPG, 52% FG, 45.2% 3PT, 4.9 REB, 5.1 AST, 1.8 STL in 25 games played -- have him firmly in the G League MVP discussion. Former Duke Blue Devil Marshall Plumlee has appeared in five games with the Bucks since being signed to a Two-Way contract on January 15. The 7-footer is averaging 2.4 points and 2.0 rebounds in 4.8 minutes per game...
