The Wisconsin Badger family reacts to the Milwaukee Bucks’ NBA title
The Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Phoenix Suns 105-98 in Game 6 of the NBA Finals last night, completing their quest for the franchise’s first championship in 50 years.
The Wisconsin Badger and Milwaukee sports family and fandom parallel each other in so many ways. And with this late-summer quest for a championship, we’ve seen numerous members of the Wisconsin Badger family express their support for the Bucks.
Some are Wisconsin natives, some just gained a Wisconsin identity through playing football or basketball for the Badgers. But in either situation, the feeling of elation was clear after last night’s win.
From Melvin Gordon, to Josh Gasser, to Tyler Beach and more, here are some of the best reactions from current and former Badgers to the Bucks’ NBA title:
