Rookie Brandon Jennings scored 29 points to lead the Milwaukee Bucks to a 95-88 victory over Charlotte on Friday night, with minority owner Michael Jordan on hand to witness his Bobcats drop their seventh straight.

Milwaukee (7-3) finished the homestand 5-1 and is off to its best start since going 9-1 in 2001, even though the Bucks were without guard Michael Redd (sprained left knee) and center Andrew Bogut (strained left leg).

Stephen Jackson, in town for the second time in seven days after being traded from the Warriors to the Bobcats, scored 22 points in his third game with his new team. Gerald Wallace added 22 points and 10 rebounds, and Flip Murray had 17 points for Charlotte.
