June 25, 2019 The Common Council congratulates Giannis Antetokounmpo on winning the 2018-19 NBA MVP Award From Alderwoman Milele A. Coggs, Alderman Ashanti Hamilton, Alderman Khalif J. Rainey, Alderman José G. Pérez, Alderman Nik Kovac, Alderman Cavalier Johnson, Alderman Michael J. Murphy, Alderwoman Chantia Lewis, Alderman Mark A. Borkowski, Alderwoman Nikiya Dodd, Alderman Tony Zielinski, Alderman Bob Donovan, Alderman Robert J. Bauman, and Alderman Russell W. Stamper, II We heartily congratulate Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo on winning the 2018-19 Most Valuable Player Award at last night’s NBA Awards ceremony. Mr. Antetokounmpo is an inspiration for all Milwaukeeans, especially given his support and strong connection to his family, resilience in the face of hardship and passion for the game of basketball. Giannis Antetokounmpo is the first Bucks MVP since Kareem Abdul-Jabbar during the 1973-74 season and is also the third-youngest player to win MVP in 40 years. Mr. Antetokounmpo rose from a childhood of poverty in Greece and now holds the NBA’s biggest individual award, showing the power of hard work and determination. In addition to honoring Mr. Antetokounmpo, the Common Council would also like to recognize the Milwaukee Bucks organization, as it has quickly become one of the top franchises in the NBA. This success is further highlighted by two additional awards won at last night’s ceremony, with Mike Budenholzer winning Coach of the Year and Jon Horst receiving Executive of the Year. With these top- level leaders guiding the franchise, the future of the Milwaukee Bucks is bright. We are immensely proud of Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks, and we know they can bring an NBA Championship back to Milwaukee! -30- .

NBA, WNBA, MLB, MLS Postpone Games As Players Protest Jacob Blake Shooting
Sports come to a halt: NBA, WNBA, MLB, MLS postpone games as players protest Jacob Blake shooting By Ben Golliver August 26, 2020 at 10:03 p.m. EDT KISSIMMEE, Fla. — The NBA’s restart inside a restricted bubble at Disney World, which has proceeded smoothly for more than a month without any positive novel coronavirus tests, came to a screeching halt Wednesday when the Milwaukee Bucks refused to take the court for a playoff game against the Orlando Magic to protest the police shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wis. The league announced the cancellation of all three games scheduled for Wednesday as a result, and a meeting of NBA players later Wednesday night cast doubt on whether the postseason would continue at all. The unprecedented decision to postpone the games was quickly followed by a similar decision by the WNBA, which postponed three scheduled games across the state in Bradenton, and by teams and players in numerous other professional sports. In Milwaukee, the Brewers announced they would not play their Major League Baseball game Wednesday night against the Cincinnati Reds. The Seattle Mariners’ game against the San Diego Padres and the Los Angeles Dodgers’ game against the San Francisco Giants also were postponed. The cancellations underscored an emerging new reality in big-time sports in which athletes are increasingly emboldened to express themselves on racial injustice and other social issues and leagues are finding ways to accommodate their views. Tensions inside the bubble have mounted over the past two days, with players and coaches outraged by the video of Blake’s shooting, but the Bucks’ decision not to play in Game 5 of their first-round series caught league and team staffers by surprise.
