Bucks to open season at home for first time since 1984
For the first time since 1984, the Milwaukee Bucks will open their campaign at home, on Oct. 28, against the New York Knicks, the team announced on Wednesday.
The Bucks will play 12 national television games in 2015-16, highlighted by a road clash at Cleveland on Nov. 19. Additionally, the world champion Golden State Warriors will make their lone appearance in Milwaukee on Saturday, Dec. 12.
The Bucks will have a pair of five-game home stands after the All-Star break, the first of which will begin in late February.
Milwaukee will play each Eastern Conference foe four times, with the exception of Atlanta, Brooklyn, Miami and Philadelphia, whom the Bucks will play three times each. Jason Kidd's club will play each Western Conference opponent twice.
Also of note, a total of twenty back-to-back sets line Milwaukee's schedule.
