Throwback jerseys are one thing, but a throwback court is taking it to another level.
The Milwaukee Bucks are breaking out a replica of the “court that made Milwaukee famous” for one night only Thursday against the Celtics at UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena, formerly known as the MECCA. The Bucks, who currently play at the Bradley Center, called the MECCA home from 1968 to 1988.
