Season Averages: 15.5 PPG, 3.1 RPG, 7.6 APG, 1.3 SPG, 0.1 BPG, FG% 37.3, 3PT%  33.7, FT% 75.1

What is there to say about Brandon Jennings’ season? Well, he played pretty much as you’d expect him to. He hasn’t become an incredibly efficient shooter, or a lockdown defender, instead he’s remained exactly the player that former general manager Joe Dumars invested in. Jennings did have a career-high in assists. He also took less shots than ever before, which would seem like a positive, if it wasn’t for the fact that his diabolical shooting percentage is his worst since his rookie season.

In need of improving: Efficiency, efficiency, efficiency. Jennings is never going to be a defensive specialist, but if he could improve his decision making, and up his shooting percentages, he could become a formidable offensive weapon.

Grade: C
