NBA All-Star festivities will take place on Saturday, February 19th.  Milwaukee Bucks players Giannis and Thanasis Antetokounmpo, along with Khris Middleton, are all competing in some way, shape, or form.  However, this question remains: was Bobby Portis snubbed after not being selected to compete in the MTN DEW three-point contest? https://twitter.com/BPortistime/status/1491295618798526466 After not being selected, Portis took to Twitter to let the NBA know his thoughts.  All-Star week is about putting on a show and entertaining fans.  Have you ever watched a Milwaukee Bucks game?

With the NBA trade deadline six days away, the Milwaukee Bucks are likely looking to make a move or two.  Backup point guard is an area that the Bucks could look to improve.  A name to watch is Dennis Schroder.  He has a team friendly contract and will likely leave the Celtics next season when he becomes an unrestricted free agent.  The Celtics likely know the value Schroder has to a contending team who are in need of backup point guards but will the Bucks have enough interesting assets to offer Brad Stevens?  This is certainly something to keep an…

The NBA trade deadline is eight days away and as Bucks fans watch their team, they are left frustrated.  Brook Lopez injury has many of the Bucks faithful asking for an addition of a center.  This is easier said than done, however, as Brook is a unique center.  Finding a similar player who can shoot threes, protect the rim and clean the glass is no small task.  Those types of players are hard to come by, especially at the price point the Bucks are looking.  Enter Serge Ibaka. What would the trade look like? Bucks Trade: Donte DiVincenzo and George…

After four days short, or long days, however they have been for you, Davante Adams has decided on skipping the Pro Bowl. Current reports are that Adams is skipping the Pro Bowl due to injury. A lot of speculation as to what that injury could. It’s likely he’s skipping the game altogether to avoid any sort of injury. This offseason is going to be a difficult one for fans because of the Packers looming cap issue. With an open roster spot being available, Mike Evans has been named the replacement for Adams. This comes as no surprise given the numbers…

The NFL All-Pro team was released this past week. Among that list was one Packer and two former Badgers. Davante Adams, Johnathan Taylor and T.J. Watt were three of the five unanimous selections making Wisconsin fans proud. These players are joined by two Los Angles Rams, Aaron Donald and Cooper Kupp. Johnathan Taylor In his second year, Johnathan Taylor has proven to be all he was hyped up to be, and then some. For example, he led the NFL with 1,811 rushing yards and 18 touchdowns. He dominated so much in fact, he rushed for over 550 yards more than…

The NBA honors Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his legacy with a full slate of games on the third Monday in January.

Each of these teams has struggled as of late and will look to get back on track tonight.…

Bobby Portis – or Bobby POTUS, whichever you prefer – has become a fan favorite, right alongside Giannis. But where would the Bucks be without Bobby this season?

He’s tough, gritty, and plays with a chip on his shoulder. Winning Record When healthy, Bobby Portis has anchored the Bucks at the center position. His natural role is power forward, but due to the injury of…
