MILWAUKEE -- Mike Dunleavy missed the previous seven games because of a bruised left knee. The way he played Tuesday night, it was hard to tell.

 

Dunleavy scored 17 points off the bench, including grabbing a key rebound and scoring on a putback after missing a 3-pointer with 1:35 left, to help the Milwaukee Bucks hold off the Indiana Pacers 98-93.

 

"It was nice to have him back," Bucks coach Scott Skiles said. "It didn't seem like he had been out. He's not known for being a great athlete. He is really long and he has a really great basketball set. When he is around the rim, usually something good happens."

 

Dunleavy said it just felt good to be back on the court and to contribute to a victory against a Central Division rival.

 

"I felt very comfortable out there," said Dunleavy, who hit 3 of 5 3-pointers. "I feel like my condition is a little bit down, but I felt good. I hate missing games, but it's good to be back and good to get a win."

 

The other star of the game for Milwaukee was Brandon Jennings, who scored 34 points, grabbed five rebounds and handed out six assists.

 

Jennings scored 13 points in the fourth quarter.

 

"Brandon was good from the get-go," Dunleavy said. "He made big shots and very big plays. That's why he's Brandon."

 

Skiles played Jennings 44 minutes even though the Bucks play at Memphis on Wednesday.
