Christmas Day is a day that’s anticipated by many for a wide variety of reasons, and for Milwaukee Bucks fans this year, that includes the chance to see their team compete under one of the brightest spotlights the NBA has to offer.
The Milwaukee Bucks will end a 41-year wait in returning to the NBA’s traditional five-game Christmas Day slate on Tuesday, as Mike Budenholzer’s team will match-up with the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden.
As the only major sports league to schedule games on Christmas Day, the NBA’s December 25 festivities have grown into one of the signature events of the season, and one of the more widely-watched series of games on the sporting calendar.
