Clippers point guard Baron Davis believes that Milwaukee's Brandon Jennings should be the NBA's Rookie of the Year this season.

"I think Brandon should be the rookie of the year because it's all about winning in this league," Davis said Tuesday. "He's been winning, and he's been doing a good job of leading his team.

"He's had the numbers and all the accolades. He's definitely the point guard of the future in this league."

Jennings led the race early in the season after scoring 55 points in just his seventh NBA game against the Warriors. However, many feel he has since been passed by Sacramento's Tyreke Evans and Golden State's Stephen Curry.

"I've been watching him since before he went to high school," Davis said. "He's always had that focus and that confidence. It's great to see your little brother grow up and be doing it. He's like a little brother to me. I just have a lot of respect for his game.

"I always knew he was going to make it, and at the level he's performing, I'm not surprised.
