Bucks to hold preseason game in Madison

The Milwaukee Bucks announced that the team will return to Madison in the fall, first for a week of training camp from Sept. 29 through Oct. 2, and then to host a preseason game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday, Oct. 20.  It marks the first full-team appearance by the Bucks in Madison since a preseason game against the Dallas Mavericks during the 1999 preseason.

Bucks basketball in Madison was a regular occurrence in the early years of the franchise, as the team played 25 regular season games, seven playoff games and five preseason games in the city during the 1960’s and 1970’s.  Milwaukee played another three exhibitions in Madison during the ’80s and two more in the ’90s, but none since the 1999 matchup with Dallas.
