Questions & Antlers: An off-season chinwag with Jack and Zac (Part 2)

As always, the Brew Hoop community came up big, posing some very thoughtful questions. Coaching, projections, perspective, roster construction, team priorities, and more. You hit ‘em all. Here’s our takes; thanks for choppin’ it up. Coaching Harms: Where would you rank Taylor Jenkins right now vs the rest of the league Head coaches? Zac: This […]

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NBA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Bucks fans and fans across the country.

TECKnically speaking: A Q&A with Locked On Bucks’ Camille Davis

Some voices become so familiar they feel like family. Camille Davis, co-host of Locked On Bucks and the TECKnical Foul Podcast, has quickly become one of those. A Milwaukee native, Davis covers the Bucks and the NBA (along with the NFL and WWE) in a soft-spoken style that blends insightful analysis with passion and humour. […]

Beer goggles: The future is bright and blurry in Brew City

“I can’t believe this just happened!” You either said it or you heard it, on a day you never thought would come—when the Bucks traded away a player we got to watch grow up, a player who became a multi-time All-Star and fixture in the community, and who helped Milwaukee raise its first championship banner […]

The curious case of Kel’el Ware

Kel’el Ware is an enigma. He possesses God-given ability like few other big men, but has yet to come close to establishing himself as a “winning player.” Has he had stretches of being that guy? Absolutely. It hasn’t been consistent, though. This shows up not only in the eye test, but also in the advanced […]

Prophetic: Brayden Burries is Dwyane Wade

“Time does not exist as a horizontal line but rather in a vertical relationship to the present.”—Rebecca Walker Stop. Find your DeLorean, TARDIS, displacement sphere, or phone booth—whatever you’ve got access to. Set the destination. Close your eyes. When you arrive, it’s 2003. The San Antonio Spurs have just won the NBA championship in a […]

Bucks Reacts Survey: Just how good will Brayden Burries become?

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NBA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Bucks fans and fans across the country. A little over three months ago, as part of our build-up to the 2026 NBA Draft, I dove into the history of the tenth overall pick. […]

Welcome to Volume V of our “Choose Your Own Adventure” starter series, where we explore the Milwaukee Bucks’ options at each position.

Who should start for the Bucks at power forward?

Welcome to Volume IV of our “Choose Your Own Adventure” starter series, where we explore the Milwaukee Bucks’ options at each position. Read along, make your choice, and share your pick in the comments—if you dare! Unlike the shooting guard position, the Bucks are pretty bare at power forward. So bare, in fact, that they’ll […]

Who should start for the Bucks at small forward?

Welcome to Volume III of our “Choose Your Own Adventure” starter series, where we explore the Milwaukee Bucks’ options at each position. Read along, make your choice, and share your pick in the comments—if you dare! We’ve covered the point and shooting guard too, now it’s time for the wing—at small forward, start who? Awkward […]

Bucks Reacts Survey: How many games will Milwaukee win this season?

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NBA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Bucks fans and fans across the country. From betting markets to pundit analysis, most outlets are pretty low on the Bucks’ prospects this season. Shockingly, Bleacher Report’s record prediction has them finishing at […]

Fan post: Welcome to the DOPE Show

Hello Brew Hoopers. Today we have a fan post from Rick Berry. Rick sent us this really interesting article, and we wanted to spotlight it on the site because he clearly put a lot of effort into it. Fan posts are somewhat a thing of the past on BH due to logistical issues—The Feed is […]

Vin Baker to join Giannis in Miami

Per Chris Haynes, former Bucks assistant Vin Baker is joining Erik Spoelstra’s staff in Miami, where he will reunite with Giannis. Baker spent eight seasons with the Bucks and had an extremely close relationship with the two-time MVP, so it makes sense that the Heat would want to bring in a familiar face. This is […]

Bucks Reacts Survey Results: Majority of fans want two ex-Heat players to start

This week, our attention turned to the quartet of players—Tyler Herro, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kel’el Ware, Kasparas Jakučionis—the Bucks acquired as part of the trade that sent Giannis and Bobby Portis to the Miami Heat. More specifically, we asked you how many of them you think Taylor Jenkins should start. Turns out the magic number […]

Bucks draft-and-stash finds new home

After being taken by the Bucks with the 60th pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, Malique Lewis is expected to reach a deal with the NBL’s Cairns Taipans for the upcoming season. Of course, Lewis knows the league well, having spent the last two seasons with the Southeast Melbourne Phoenix; last year, he averaged 6.9 […]

Welcome to Volume II of our “Choose Your Own Adventure” starter series, where we explore the Milwaukee Bucks’ options at each position. Read along, make your choice, and share your pick in the comments—if you dare! This season, the Bucks will start their best shooting guard in a decade. Marinate on that. For a franchise […]

Heard ‘em say: Mid-August media roundup

August. Continues. To. Stagnate. Still, there are bits and pieces—rumours and news and everything in between—that you might have heard about (yes, it took a lot of resistance not to force a deer-related pun in there—and for the headline). Let’s catch up. Brayden Burries keeps balling You love basketball. I love basketball. Brayden Burries loves […]

Who should start for the Bucks at point guard?

Welcome to Volume I of our “Choose Your Own Adventure” starter series, where we explore the Milwaukee Bucks’ options at each position. Read along, make your choice, and share your pick in the comments—if you dare!

Bucks Reacts Survey: How many of the ex-Heat players should the Bucks start?

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NBA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Bucks fans and fans across the country.

Bucks Reacts Survey Results: Majority of fans agree with Horst waiting on Giannis

This week, we finally touched on the elephant in the room re. Giannis: the notion that Bucks GM Jon Horst waited too long to trade him. This week’s polling results were fascinating because, to me, they showed how being a team fan and having a deeper connection to its players can change how people view […]

Although the Bucks won’t play on any holidays, like Opening Night, Christmas Day, MLK Day, or Presidents’ Day, or travel abroad for any overseas games, there are a lot of intriguing matchups that Milwaukee will face this season.
