Recap
Bucks 105, 76ers 96: Brandon Jennings scored 11 of his season-high 33 points in the fourth quarter and visiting Milwaukee remained unbeaten on the road by holding on to defeat Philadelphia.
Monta Ellis added 18 for Milwaukee, which has opened 3-0 on the road for the first time since the 2001-02 season. Mike Dunleavy added 13 as the Bucks won despite squandering a 16-point late in the third quarter and committing 23 turnovers.
Jrue Holiday led the 76ers with 25 points but also committed eight turnovers, including two costly ones in the fourth quarter. Jason Richardson added 20 points in his return from a left ankle injury as Philadelphia had its three-game winning streak snapped.
Jennings rebounded nicely from an awful 1-of-11 performance in Saturday's home loss to Boston by going 12-of-21 from the floor with four 3-pointers. His biggest shot of the night was a long 3-pointer over Royal Ivey that gave Milwaukee a 92-89 edge with 7:05 remaining. The Bucks went on a 14-4 run to put the game out of reach.
Jennings also had a big first half as he scored 19 points to help the Bucks seize a 62-50 lead into halftime. He also had a three-point play midway through the third as Milwaukee took a 75-59 lead before Philadelphia stormed back with a 24-8 run.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Philadelphia C Andrew Bynum's timetable to recover from a knee injury and participate in his first practice has been changed to some point between mid-December and mid-January. ... Richardson made five of his first seven shots and finished 8-of-16 overall. ... Ellis missed Milwaukee's morning shootaround with a back issue, but was 8-of-20 in 38 minutes. ... Milwaukee held a 48-31 rebounding advantage though no player reached double figures.
