MILWAUKEE BUCKS HISTORY
The Milwaukee Bucks were established in 1968 as an expansion team and are now a part of the Central Division. To name the team, the owners created a contest for fans to suggest names. It turns out, though, that “Bucks” was not one of the winning names. Instead, the most popular choice was the Robins.
Judges overruled the winning suggestion in favor of the Bucks, a nod to Wisconsin’s official wild animal, the white-tailed deer. In the Bucks’ first season, the team finished last in their division, but that wasn’t the case for long.
After drafting Kareem Abdul Jabbar in 1971, the teams’ tide changed, and they won two conference championships in 1971 and 1974. It wasn’t until more than 40 years later, however, that they won their third championship, which happened in 2021 against the Phoenix Suns.
The Bucks play their home games at the new Fiserv Forum, located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
MILWAUKEE BUCKS LOGO
The Milwaukee Bucks logo has gone through four iterations to get to what it is today. Originally, the team’s logo was a cartoon buck wearing a sweater with a “B” on it. The buck was also spinning a basketball, of course.
The first redesign came in 93 for the team’s 25th season. This logo featured a buck that had a more real, and aggressive, look to it, on top of a dark blue triangle with the team’s name below it. In 2006, the logo changed again, this time mostly in terms of color. They kept the hunter green color but changed the dark blue to a red.
Since 2015, the Bucks logo has represented growth, power and maturity. The new buck has 12, instead of 8 antlers, and is only looking forward. The hunter green is now complemented by a beige color.
