Brandon Jennings Returns in D-League After 11-Month Injury Absence: 11 points+12 assists
Brandon Jennings played 27 minutes in 130-104 win
Nearly a year after rupturing his Achilles tendon, Brandon Jennings was back on the basketball court on Saturday night. This time, though, he was donning a different jersey. The six-year NBA veteran made his NBA Development League debut Saturday night on a rehab stint with the Grand Rapids Drive, the Pistons’ minor-league affiliate.
The 6-foot-1, 170-pound guard started for the Drive and played 27 minutes, tallying 11 points to go along with 12 assists and three rebounds in the 130-104 win over the Iowa Energy.
