Bucks Co-Owners Talk TV, All-Star Game: It's All About the Fans, Man
The Milwaukee Bucks are rolling right now, and it's not just because of Giannis Antetokounmpo's MVP-level play. The team's co-owners, Wes Edens and Marc Lasry, are doing everything they can to keep the Bucks on top.
From TV Deals to the All-Star Game, It's All About the Fans
One of the biggest things they've done recently is finalize a new TV deal that will keep Bucks games on local TV for years to come. This deal, they say, is all about making sure fans have access to their favorite team.
"We wanted to make sure that Bucks basketball was available to everyone in the community," Edens said. "We know how important the team is to our fans, and we wanted to make sure they could watch every game."
But it's not just about TV. The Bucks are also getting ready to host the 2024 NBA All-Star Game, a huge event that will bring the best players in the league to Milwaukee.
"We're so excited to bring the All-Star Game to Milwaukee," Lasry said. "It's going to be an amazing event for our city and for our fans."
A Big Focus on Community Engagement
Both Edens and Lasry are committed to using the Bucks platform to make a positive impact on the community. They've worked with local organizations to support education, health, and poverty initiatives.
"We believe that sports can be a powerful force for good," Edens said. "We want to use our platform to help make a difference in the lives of people in Milwaukee."
The Bucks have become a model franchise in the NBA, both on and off the court. With the team's success and the co-owners' commitment to community, the future looks bright for the Bucks.
But Don't Get Too Carried Away
Let's be honest, while it's awesome to have a great team, it's also important to remember that the Bucks are still a team, not some kind of charity organization. The goal is to win, and they're doing a good job of that.
With the right combination of talent, leadership, and community involvement, the Bucks are well-positioned to continue to be a force in the NBA for years to come. Let's just hope they don't get too big for their britches, you know?
