Brandon Jennings to make Pistons return Dec. 29 vs. Knicks

Former Detroit Pistons beat writer Vincent Goodwill tweeted out information we've all been trying to guess over the last couple days -- the return of Brandon Jennings:

Pistons guard Brandon Jennings plans to make his season debut after Achilles surgery Dec 29 vs the Knicks at Madison Square Garden

Goodwill also said that Jennings will play for the Drive on Saturday, Dec. 19. No word on anything beyond that, whether he will stay with the Drive until he makes his debut or travel with the big club to Miami and then Atlanta next week before returning home for a game with the Celtics a day after Christmas. We'll obviously keep you posted as we learn more and will have full coverage of his game(s) with the Drive.

Now your swag thoughts.

UPDATE: Keith Langlois has a solid post on Jennings' impending return and in it he says that Jennings could be back in uniform as early as Tuesday, Dec. 22 in Miami. To me, it seems like Jennings is itching to get back to playing basketball games and SVG might not think he's ready and wants to be extra cautious or at least temper expectations. You should go read it.
