Milwaukee, WI -- (Sports Network) - Brandon Jennings scored 32 points and dished out nine assists as Milwaukee downed Denver, 108-102, at Bradley Center.

"I was trying to come out and play smart, get my teammates involved and then finish through them," said Jennings.

Jennings' outside game was supported by Andrew Bogut's 23 points and 10 rebounds on the interior. Ersan Ilyasova added 17 points and eight rebounds off the bench for the Bucks, who have won three straight and started off a six-game homestand in style.

Carmelo Anthony led Denver with 32 points to go along with 10 rebounds, but did commit seven turnovers to just two assists. Chauncey Billups added 19 points, J.R. Smith donated 18 points of instant offense off the bench and Nene compiled 16 points and seven rebounds for the Nuggets, who were coming off a nailbiting 90-89 victory over Chicago on Tuesday.

"He is shifty, very fast. He flows around the basket," Billups said of Jennings.

The teams played to a 27-27 stalemate after one period but Milwaukee created some breathing room in the second stanza. Six straight points from Jennings handed the Bucks a 42-35 edge, but Denver responded with a 10-2 burst capped by Billups trey for a one-point advantage.

Milwaukee responded with a 9-2 spurt capped by Jennings' jumper that just beat the horn for a 53-47 lead after 24 minutes of game action.

The Bucks held the Nuggets at arm's length in the third quarter and tallied the final five points with Luke Ridnour's jumper and Charlie Bell's three- pointer for an 81-72 advantage.

The Nuggets put the home team's victory in doubt with a late fourth-quarter flurry. A lay-in by Nene followed by a Billups trey cut the deficit to 100-97 with 46 seconds to play. Bogut followed with a mid-range bucket, but Smith connected from long distance for a 102-100 game. Jennings and Anthony exchanged two free throws, but Anthony misfired on a three-point attempt with 10 seconds to go and Jennings sealed the victory with two more shots from the foul line.
