A new ownership group headed by entrepreneurs Wesley Edens, Jamie Dinan, Jimmy Haslam, and an impressive assemblage of Milwaukee community leaders infuses the team and city with a new vitality driven by the promise of a next-generation team that remains true to the spirit of the “Brew City.”
In addition to an exciting roster of talented players, the organization is in the final stages of a new arena to serve as the home for the next era of Bucks basketball. The state-of-the-art facility will become an important part of the revitalization of downtown Milwaukee and become integral to the community’s economic future.
This new beginning for the Milwaukee Bucks is preceded by a lengthy history of success in the NBA, highlighted by the franchise’s NBA Championship in 1971 and 2021. In just the team’s third season of action, the Bucks earned the distinction of owning the quickest rise from expansion team to champion in any of the four major North American professional leagues. The Bucks also count two conference championships, 13 division titles, and 27 postseason appearances among the team’s many accomplishments. Additionally, numerous Bucks players, coaches, and contributors are included as members of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
