July 24th, 2007 · 2 Comments

The LA Times has a small blurb on Brandon Jennings and how the UCLA and USC basketball rivalries with Arizona Wildcat might get more heated with comments made by the Arizona committed point guard:

“I don’t respect West Coast point guards; they’re too Hollywood for me”

“I’m more of an East Coast, flashy-type point guard.”

On UCLA recruit Jrue Holiday:

“He’s real smooth, goes to work in the first three quarters — but he’s not a killer yet,” Jennings said. “Me, I’m a killer.”

Brandon Jennings at the NBPA Top 100 Camp

June 27th, 2007 · 5 Comments

Brandon Jennings, the 6-1 senior point guard out of Oak Hill and future Arizona Wildcat was an unstoppable human fast break at the NBPA Top 100 Camp. Legendary high school scout Bob Gibbons on his thoughts of Jennings:

“I’d say Brandon Jennings is the best player here. Talent-wise, he’s just head and shoulders above the other point guards,”

Brandon agreeing on Gibbon’s assessment:

“Having former pros teaching you is real exciting, but to be honest, I’ve had my way with everyone at this camp so far. Nobody here has really been any competition for me. I think I’m the king of [high school] point guards right now.”

Jennings on what separates him from the rest:

“I don’t respect West Coast point guards; they’re too Hollywood for me. I’m more of an East Coast, flashy-type point guard. Someone like Jrue Holiday [another top-ranked Cali guard], he’s real smooth, goes to work in the first three quarters–but he’s not a killer yet. Me, I’m a killer.”

Why Brandon Jennings is going to be really good at the next level

January 23rd, 2007 · No Comments

SLAMonline’s Ryan Jones comments about Brandon Jennings after their loss to Simeon:

I loved seeing Jennings crying at the end of the game. Not in a bad way — I just love the competitiveness of this kid who’s still only a junior, getting that upset about losing a regular season game. He took it hard, which is one of many reasons why Brandon’s gonna be really, really good at the next level(s).
