The Bucks garnered significant interest when they announced that they would be hosting a "Return to the Mecca" night this upcoming season, their 50th overall as a franchise. Today, they probably stoked that enthusiasm even further by announcing that the game will be against the revamped Boston Celtics on October 26th. Even if the Kyrie trade is somehow vetoed, the opportunity to face one of the East’s premier teams on national TV (TNT) is always one that gets the fanbase, and more importantly Giannis Antetokounmpo, rather hyped.
As if the throwback to one of the most famed, artistic courts in sports arena history wasn’t enough, the Bucks also showed off the Nike Classic uniforms they’ll be wearing that night and throughout the season.
