Former NBA star, Kenny Anderson is a personal mentor to Jennings and was also present at the event. The tho have been friends since Anderson was informed that Jennings would watch and study his past game films. Anderson vocalized just how proud he was of Jennings and mentioned that "he's got so much potential, greatness. He'll be fine."


According to Slam, an online basketball news site, Jennings said, "there's nothing like giving back at home. That's where you started from and that's where everyone remembers you. Hopefully everyone remembers this day and remembers that I haven't forgotten about them. I always wanted to give back where I same from, so why not with a basketball court?"
