Two weeks ago, it leaked out that most NBA teams had their ‘City’ jerseys released early thanks to a NBA 2K upload. We happened to see Milwaukee’s uniforms as well which were cream in tribute to the ‘Cream City.’ Today, Milwaukee officially released the jerseys to the public along with most of the NBA. As we talked about these jerseys are complete fire and some of the best in the city collection. The question now is how many times will we see the Bucks in these uniforms during the season?

Milwaukee will wear these 13 times the rest of the season per the press release this morning. Seven times at home, and six on the road. I know the Nike style does not have ‘Home’ and ‘Away’ uniforms anymore, but it strikes me as odd that these would be used equally on the road. It’s good to see they are not overdoing it though. Two years ago, Milwaukee went overboard with the ‘Fear the Deer’ jerseys. I liked them, but it became their primary road uniform for awhile there where the green got forgotten.

I feel these should sell like hot cakes from a jersey perspective, although, I’ll be interested to see how they look in other designs. The cream will not look that clean on a t-shirt for a variety of reasons. For one, it’s a prime candidate to get a stain on it at the game. Secondly if the stripe goes fully across the chest, it’s not big human friendly at all. We’ll see if these end up getting an additional boost in Bucks merchandise which probably has never been hotter with the play of Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Well done, Bucks. Way to represent the Cream City.
