MILWAUKEE, WI — The Milwaukee Bucks are headed to the NBA Finals for the first time in over 50 years. The Bucks will be facing off against the Phoenix Suns for a seven-game series that started Tuesday night.

The Bucks have only ever made it to the NBA Finals once. It was back in 1971, only three years after the team was founded. Milwaukee won against the Baltimore Bullets and took home the Larry O'Brien Trophy for its first and only time.

Over 50 years later, the Bucks are returning for a historic shot at the NBA Finals. Here are some local spots planning on airing the game in Milwaukee:
