Detroit Pistons point guard Brandon Jennings, who ruptured his left
Achilles tendon nearly 11 months ago, will return to the court for the
first time when he suits up for the Grand Rapids Drive of the D-League
on Saturday night.
“I don’t think there’s a lot of guys with Brandon’s status in the
league, even coming off an injury, who would do that,” said Pistons
coach Stan Van Gundy, who will board a bus with Pistons staffers and
Jennings well-wishers to Grand Rapids, Michigan, for the game. “But
Brandon just loves to play basketball. I asked him, ‘Do you want this
publicized or kept quiet?’ He said, ‘I don’t care. I just want to hoop.’
That’s Brandon. He truly loves to play basketball.”
