The spinning of the planets in the solar system (and any extrasolar planets) have absolutely nothing whatever to do with the Big Bang. The angular momentum of the planets is an extremely small part of the angular momentum of the universe, so even if the universe was spinning, the direction planets were moving around their suns would be irrelevant. And, the universe isn't spinning.
Some (though maybe not most) creationists say that planets should all be spinning the same direction on account of the Big Bang, but they are wrong.
