--Bucks rookie point guard Brandon Jennings was chosen the NBA Eastern Conference Player of the Week. Jennings averaged 43.5 points, 7 assists and 4.5 rebounds in two games last week. One of those games was a 55-point outburst against the Warriors. Jennings is the first Buck to be chosen for the award since Michael Redd on Jan. 1, 2007. --The Bucks' 115-113 overtime loss to the Mavericks Monday night was their first setback in five games at the Bradley Center this season. The Bucks were 22-19 at home last season. --The Bucks will likely play against Stephen Jackson for the second time in one week -- with him being on two different teams. Jackson, who scored 21 points for the Warriors against the Bucks Saturday night, was dealt to the Bobcats Monday. The Bobcats will play the Bucks in Milwaukee Friday night.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "Jason Kidd's my man. Actually, J Kidd is still to me one of the top five point guards. He's still out there running the team and getting the wins." -- Bucks rookie point Brandon Jennings on Mavericks veteran point guard Jason Kidd.
