The terms of the deal have Jennings signing a three-year deal worth $24 million, before being shipped to Detroit in exchange for third-year guard Brandon Knight, and sophomores Viacheslav Kravtsov and Khris Middleton.

The 23-year-old Jennings was originally the 10th overall pick of the Bucks in the 2009 NBA Draft. In four seasons with the team, he posted career averages of 17.0 points (39.4 percent FG shooting, 35.4 percent 3PT shooting), 3.4 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 1.5 steals. He brought Milwaukee to the playoffs twice, in his rookie season, and last season, but they didn't get past the first round in both instances.

Knight, picked eighth in 2011, has career numbers of 13.1 points (41.0 percent FG shooting, 37.3 percent 3PT shooting), 3.2 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 0.8 steals. Kravtsov played 25 games in his rookie season, with averages of 3.1 points and 1.8 rebounds, while Middleton put up 6.1 points and 1.9 rebounds.

It is expected that another offseason signing by Detroit, returning veteran point guard Chauncey Billups, will mentor Jennings, who will also join Josh Smith, the team's other big signing.

Milwaukee on the other hand looks a lot more different from the team that got the Eastern Conference's eighth seed last season. Gone are the likes of JJ Redick, Monta Ellis, Samuel Dalembert, Mike Dunleavy Jr. and Drew Gooden, replacing them with signings like OJ Mayo, Carlos Delfino, Gary Neal, Luke Ridnour and Zaza Pachulia. - AMD, GMA News
