The fact that the Milwaukee Bucks just won the NBA Finals (never gets old saying that) may still feel fresh, but the 2021-22 season is already upon us – starting with the preseason schedule, as revealed today by the team.

The Bucks will hit the court once again on the road in Memphis, playing Ja Morant and the Grizzlies at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 5. Milwaukee will then head to Brooklyn for a preseason spat against the Nets later that week before finally coming back to Fiserv Forum for a 7 p.m. warm-up game on Sunday, Oct. 10 against the Oklahoma City Thunder – their first of two home preseason games. 

Here's the full preseason schedule

• Tuesday, Oct. 5 – 7 p.m. at Memphis Grizzlies
• Friday, Oct. 8 – 6:30 p.m. at Brooklyn Nets
• Sunday, Oct. 10 – 7 p.m. vs. Oklahoma City Thunder
• Wednesday, Oct. 13 – 8 p.m. at Utah Jazz
• Friday, Oct. 15 – 7 p.m. vs. Dallas Mavericks

And if Oct. 5 is too long to wait to see the Bucks back in action, the team will host an intra-squad open scrimmage at Fiserv Forum on Sunday, Oct. 3 at noon.

Tickets for Milwaukee's two home preseason will go on sale beginning at 10 a.m. on Friday, Sept. 10 on the Bucks app and on the Bucks website – where fans can also order full-season ticket memberships for the team's upcoming title-defending regular season run.

Stay tuned to OnMilwaukee for more Bucks updates (including information on the regular season schedule, which is expected soon). And one more time, just because: The Milwaukee Bucks are the defending NBA champions.
