The Milwaukee Bucks have arguably the most awesome player in the NBA at the moment in Giannis Antetokounmpo, and for one night, they may have the most awesome court design.
According to ESPN’s Darren Rovell, the Bucks will be pulling out all the stops when they return to play at the MECCA, their home from 1968-88, for their Oct. 26 game against the Boston Celtics. Not only will they be wearing retro jerseys, but they will also be playing on a replica of their old court which was designed by artist Robert Indiana in 1977.
“Robert Indiana's famously designed floor is a major part of the legacy, not only of the Bucks, but of the city of Milwaukee,” Bucks chief marketing officer Dustin Godsey said. “We really had a hard time imagining playing a game in the old arena without the court being there as well, and giving fans one last opportunity to see ‘the floor that made Milwaukee famous.'”
Adding the replica court design was a nice touch for the Bucks given how iconic it is to the franchise and the city. It should be a fun experience for Bucks fans and players of different generations to enjoy such a famous court one more time.
