This may just be the feel-good moment to kick off All-Star Weekend: On Thursday night as OKC faced the Milwaukee Bucks, Nikola Topic made his NBA debut. Topic, the 12th pick in the 2024 NBA draft, missed all of last season because of a knee injury. Before the 2025-2026 season started, he was diagnosed with […]
The Milwaukee Bucks just keep on surprising, beating the (admittedly bruised) Oklahoma City Thunder 110-93. Ousmane Dieng led the Bucks with 19 points, six assists, 11 rebounds, and four blocks! That said, Milwaukee had seven guys reach double digits, which is amazing. Isaiah Joe was probably the Thunder’s best player, dropping 17 points. Also, a […]
The Milwaukee Bucks got their revenge on the Orlando Magic last night in a performance that offers a lot of reasons for optimism moving forward. For at least one night, Jon Horst’s deadline deals made him look like a genius, with Cam Thomas leading the charge and Ousmane Dieng having a career night, among a […]
Bucks head coach Doc Rivers has been recongised as a finalist for the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame today for the Class of 2026 election. Aditionally, Bucks legend Marques Johnson has been named a finalist for the Veterans Committee. From Bucks PR: A first-time finalist, Rivers is the winningest active NBA head coach. With a […]
The Milwaukee Bucks got sweet, sweet revenge on the Orlando Magic, 116-108. In one of the most entertaining games all season, new acquisition Cam Thomas exploded for 34 points and Kevin Porter Jr. notched an 18-point, 10-rebound, 11-assist triple-double. Desmond Bane went off from deep with 31 points I guess, but it wasn’t enough. NBA.com […]
Six days ago, as anxiety was about as high among the fanbase as I can remember, it became clear the Bucks were not going to trade Giannis Antetokounmpo. This didn’t come as a surprise. It also didn’t come as a surprise that Milwaukee made a move, shipping out unproductive vets Cole Anthony and Amir Coffey, […]
The Milwaukee Bucks and Orlando Magic lock horns again tonight in the second game of this basketball series. It will be interesting to see how both teams adjust after playing each other two nights ago. How do the Bucks limit Anthony Black? What adjustments might the Magic make for Kevin Porter Jr.? Also, should Orlando […]

The Milwaukee Bucks put up a good fight but ultimately fell to the Orlando Magic 118-99. The game was ugly in the first half, with neither team making much from outside, but the Magic’s final 18 minutes were stellar. The Bucks have a chance to redeem themselves tomorrow night (or not, for the pro-tank crowd) […]
The Orlando Magic ended the Milwaukee Bucks’ win streak in a blowout, winning 118-99. Kevin Porter Jr. led the Bucks with 28 points, seven assists, and four rebounds, while the Magic were led by Anthony Black, who had 26 points and five boards. NBA.com Box Score Game Recap Let’s just say the first quarter was, […]
The Milwaukee Bucks have just secured their first three-game win streak of the season, and have a shot to make it four tonight against the Orlando Magic. Now, although the Bucks are playing better, each of those three wins was against a poor team; the Magic, even without Franz Wagner, present a greater challenge. This […]
Looks like Giannis isn’t the only Milwaukee Bucks player who will take part in All-Star Weekend. Bobby Portis was announced as one of the eight players who will take part in this season’s three-point contest. This is the first time in his 11-year career that Portis will participate in an All-Star event. It’s the third […]
Before Thursday’s trade deadline, a rumor last week linked the Bucks with former Nets guard Cam Thomas, primarily from HoopsHype’s Mike Scotto. While the contract isn’t public yet, usually post-deadline signings are for the veteran’s minimum, which would be about $905k for Thomas over the remainder of the year. Milwaukee can use the minimum salary […]
Franchise records, cardinal sins, basketball gods, and the unexpected. Volume 7 is nothing if not varied. And while the past fortnight might have seemed all doom and gloom to begin, a win streak and the quiet celebration of a post-trade deadline with Giannis still here have brought some much-needed positive mojo back to the Bucks. […]
Giannis Antetokounmpo joins the Chelsea FC Women ownership group alongside Alexis Ohanian, expanding his global sports investments amid injury recovery with the Bucks.
The Milwaukee Bucks are undefeated with Ousmane Dieng on the roster (despite him not seeing a second of playing time), taking down the Indiana Pacers, 105-99. After leading by as many as 20 points, the Bucks hung on despite being outscored 34-22 in the fourth. Read our full summary of the game here and catch […]

Kevin Porter Jr. was the game’s leading scorer with 23 points. Andrew Nembhard led a depleted Pacers squad with 22. […]
Fernando Mendoza will be a no throw at Combine! Hoosiers must beat Wisconsin! Shorthanded Pacers at Bucks!
Thank goodness we can focus solely on the Milwaukee Bucks on the court, not the trade rumors, as they host the Indiana Pacers tonight in a Central Division tank-off. Milwaukee has successfully defeated the Pacers in their previous two games this year. Where We’re At Despite Shams Charania’s and Brian Windhorst’s best efforts, the Milwaukee […]
Jon Horst and the Bucks front office have decided to waive journeyman Nigel Hayes-Davis, who got another shot in the NBA this season with the Phoenix Suns after a long and successful career overseas. Hayes-Davis, a wing-forward combo, actually would have fitted a position of need for the Bucks. But at 31 years old and […]
And so it begins. While the Lakers made a small move for Luke Kennard on Thursday ahead of the trade deadline, their biggest win came when the Bucks opted not to deal Giannis Antetokounmpo. By kicking the can down the road on his kinda sorta trade demand, it brings the Lakers into the fold this […]
“Reports of my death are greatly exaggerated” is the phrase Jon Horst must be saying after all the rage bait from the national media desperately begging the Milwaukee Bucks to trade Giannis Antetokounmpo. But the Bucks have gotten through the trade deadline with their superstar still in Milwaukee and a few new faces. Here’s a […]
In a surprise change of events, the Bucks have reworked their trade with the Suns. Big man Nick Richards is heading to Chicago, not Milwaukee, while Ousmane Dieng, formerly of the Thunder, is being rerouted to the Bucks. Nothing changes for Nigel Hayes-Davis, Cole Anthony and Amir Coffey. Dieng has bounced around a couple places […]
After more and more reports came out in the last 24 hours that the Bucks were increasingly likely to keep Giannis Antetokounmpo through the deadline, the most recent intel from ESPN’s Shams Charania also indicated they were going to move on to other trades. Almost immediately after, we got notification that Milwaukee had completed their […]
After gauging offers for several days for Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Milwaukee Bucks have indicated to teams that they are keeping their two-time MVP through today’s trade deadline. ESPN’s Shams Charania first reported the news today, with several others following up to confirm the story. This has been the prevailing sentiment over the past couple of […]
