PHILADELPHIA -- Brandon Jennings bobbled the ball once, twice, then let it fly.

 

His shaky ballhandling was erased by the steady aim of his 3-point shot. Jennings hit the go-ahead 3 late in the fourth quarter and finished with 33 points, eight assists, and four steals to lead the Milwaukee Bucks to a 105-96 win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night.

 

"It was actually a big shot for us because they had the momentum," Jennings said. "It just gave us back the momentum."

 

Monta Ellis scored 18 points and had seven assists, and Mike Dunleavy had 13 to help the Bucks improve to 3-0 on the road for the first time since they won their first four in 2001-02. Jennings and Ellis combined to make 20 of 41 shots with 10 rebounds and 15 assists as the Bucks shot around 60 percent most of the game.

 

After Jennings' 3 put the Bucks up 92-89, Dunleavy buried a 3 with 2:44 left to stretch Milwaukee's lead to 10. Led by Dorell Wright, the Sixers sizzled from 3-point range until the end, but they simply didn't have long-range makes left in them to make this one a game.

 

They also couldn't stop Jennings' drives to the basket off the pick and roll. He also hit four 3-pointers and was 5 of 5 from the free-throw line.

 

Jennings made a nice recovery on the winning 3 after nearly losing the ball and adding to Milwaukee's total of 23 turnovers.
