Report: Pistons' Jennings to miss 3rd straight game Friday

Brandon Jennings' thumb is still giving him trouble, and the injury will keep the Detroit Pistons' point guard out of action Friday, according to MLive.com's David Mayo. 

Jennings will miss his third consecutive game, this time against his former team, the Milwaukee Bucks. The point guard has a hyperextended left thumb, and earlier this week told media the pain was keeping him from shooting. 

D.J. Augustin is starting in Jennings' place, averaging 14.7 points and 4.7 assists in Detroit's last three games, albeit on sub-37 percent shooting.
