Fan Removed from Bucks-Warriors Game for Allegedly Threatening Draymond Green

Draymond Green and the Golden State Warriors visited the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday night. During the game, Green could be seen speaking to a fan. Moments later, Green alerted the official of the conversation, leading to the fan’s ejection.

The incident occurred in the third quarter as Green lined up on the free throw line while Giannis Antentokounmpo was shooting. In the postgame, Green stated the fan said, “some threatening things to my life.”

Green stated he once thought about escalating the confrontation but kept his composure and spoke to a referee. The ref would get security and have the fan escorted out of the game.

“Some people look at NBA players like they’re superhuman,” Green said to ESPN. “That they’re this larger-than-life figure. So you come, and you get someone to say something back, and they get fined. They go home and laugh with their buddies.

“I think it’s just one of those things when you can hold it in and get to the ref and get them out; it’s great.”

Giannis Antetokounmpo Completes Challenge Made to Him From Kobe Bryant

The ears of all Chicago Bulls fans across the world have perked. NBA Superstar, 2x league MVP, and a candidate for the best player on the planet, Giannis Antentokounmpo, has left the door open on one day playing for another franchise, specifically the Bulls.

A reporter from Fox 32 Chicago asked Antentokounmpo about joining the Bulls in the future while the star was promoting his new ambassadorship with Antidote Health.

“I think anybody you ask that question that plays basketball, if he said no, he’d be a liar,” Antetokounmpo said. “It’s a team that won multiple championships; it’s a team that one of the greatest players, if not the greatest player to ever play this game, played for. So it’s a no-brainer; everybody would love to play for Chicago.”

Now, before Bulls fans get to penciling in their championship, Antentokounmpo did reaffirm he is committed to the Bucks for the near future.

“Down the line, you never know. You never know how life brings it, maybe I play for Chicago,” Antetokounmpo said. “But right now I’m committed to Milwaukee.”

Antentokounmpo won’t be a free agent until 2026.

You can hear it all from Giannis and see the Bulls Talk page attempt to woo Giannis away below.

The Milwaukee Bucks have tinkered with their roster a little bit and will be getting Kris Middleton back from injury. In preparation for the upcoming season, the Bucks have also revealed their “Fear The Deer” statement edition uniform.

The third installment of the Bucks “Fear The Deer” series, which initially debuted in 2015, continues to showcase the series’ signature aspects of a black base color and aggressive design elements in the new uniform set. The new uniform has cream antlers that run up the sides of the jersey and shorts, giving the impression that a deer is coming at an opponent while keeping its head down. Throughout with “Fear The Deer” on the shorts and the recognizable Jordan Brand emblem near the top of the jersey, it also has modest trim in the green, blue, and cream colors of the Bucks along the neck and arms.

During the 2022–23 season, the Bucks will wear the redesigned “Fear The Deer” Statement Edition uniforms alongside their Association (white) and Icon (green) outfits. This season, the club will also don new uniforms that will both be unveiled later this year: the Classic Edition and the City Edition.

Prior to the start of the 2022–23 season, the Bucks Statement Edition retail collection will be unveiled and made available at shop.bucks.com and the Bucks Pro Shop.

Jack Harlow Had A Perfect Response For The NBA Refs Who Didn’t Know Who He Was

There’s little denying that Jack Harlow is a bonafide star now, but that doesn’t mean that everyone knows who he is. He’s got two No. 1 hit singles — Lil Nas X’s “Industry Baby” and his own “First Class” — and his breakout single “What’s Poppin” is practically ubiquitous at sporting events, but two NBA referees at last night’s playoff game between the Boston Celtics and Milwaukee Bucks had a laugh at Harlow’s expense during a miked-up moment in which they admitted they had no clue who he is.

He was sitting courtside at the time, so he didn’t get to hear them in person, but once he got home and found out about the viral moment, he had the perfect response. Part of the reason he’s so popular is because of his “extremely online” personality and good-natured sense of humor. So, instead of being offended that a pair of 50-year-old NBA refs were unaware of his general existence — let alone how popular he is –, he referenced an amusing meme about himself.

“Clearly these mfs have never seen Narnia,” he joked. Of course, that’s a reference to a fan’s joking tweet pointing out Jack’s resemblance to actor James McAvoy, who played the faun Mr. Tumnus in The Chronicles Of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe. It’s a funny moment that allowed him to have the last laugh, without taking himself too seriously.

Jack’s got plenty of reasons to feel good about himself though. In a short time, he’s gone from fanning out in Bryson Tiller’s DMs to having his fellow Louisvillian helping to promote his upcoming album, Come Home The Kids Miss You. Led by the singles “Nail Tech” and “First Class,” Harlow’s latest will drop this Friday, May 6 via Atlantic Records.
