It’s safe to say that anyone who has been a Milwaukee Bucks fan since the late 2000s remembers the famous Brandon Jennings 55-point explosion against the Golden State Warriors in his rookie season. Even if you weren’t a Bucks fan, it’s still a very memorable moment from one of the bright young stars in that draft class, especially going up against fellow point guard in the 2009 NBA Draft, Steph Curry.
It was a coming-out party of sorts for the rookie Bucks point guard, only seven games into his career. Jennings went on to play 305 total games for the Bucks (14 of them coming nearly five years later) and is somewhat of a fan favorite for his famous “Bucks in 6” prediction ahead of a series against a LeBron James and Dwyane Wade led Miami Heat team.
