There is a small collection of known Bucks fans in the sports world. We have Aaron Rodgers, David Bakhtiari, Za’Darius Smith, and a few other Packers players. I’d call Craig Counsell a fan. Same with Christian Yelich. Outside of the Wisconsin sports world, they are few and far between. Partly due to the team being in Milwaukee, but we have seen Odell Beckhman Jr. rock a Giannis jersey before and soccer superstar Neymar is a big Giannis/Bucks fans as well. Neymar’s club is Paris Saint-Germain and with Bucks heading to Paris, the striker welcomed the boys to town.

Cheers @neymarjr!! See you soon!!

Now is Neymar the most well-liked soccer player? Well, no. He actually is a prick from all accounts. But is it cool that one of the biggest soccer players in the game supports the Bucks? Hell yeah. He figures to be one of the stars taking in the game on Friday night in Paris when Milwaukee takes on Charlotte.

I’m curious to see what the crowd will be like for Giannis. My guess is it will be loud and rowdy for him. It will not surprise me if the NBA gets the Bucks and Dallas Mavericks for that matter overseas for the next decade to come.
