The Milwaukee Bucks are taking on the Boston Celtics in the second round of the NBA Playoffs. For those wondering why the Bucks have a blue stripe on their uniform, we have you covered.
The Milwaukee Bucks made it to the NBA Finals last season, where they overcame an 0-2 series deficit to defeat the Phoenix Suns in six games. That was their first NBA championship win since 1971.
This year, Milwaukee is looking to go back-to-back. To do so, they will have to get past the Boston Celtics in the second round.
For those who were watching Game 2 on Tuesday, May 3 and wondering why Milwaukee’s uniforms have a blue stripe on them, we have the explanation.
Explaining the Milwaukee Bucks blue stripe on the jersey
The blue stripe is the uniform’s accent color. It is called “Great Lakes Blue.” Here is the explanation provided in the team’s press release in 2015, which explains why there is a blue stripe on the inside collar:
“The inside of the collar features a blue stripe, representative of the blue-collar work ethic of not only the Bucks but also of the city and state that the team proudly represents.”
So there you have it, that’s why Milwaukee has a blue stripe on their uniforms.
