As part of the deal, Fox Valley Pro Basketball led by Greg Pierce will be con- structing a 3,500-seat arena for the minor league team. With the purchase, the Bucks become the 20th NBA team to own and operate an NBA D-League affiliate while the NBA D-League grows to 25 teams for next season. "Our ownership group has been stead- fast in its commitment to both build a championship-caliber basketball program and develop stronger partnerships with fans and communities throughout the state of Wisconsin," Bucks co-owner Wes Edens said in a statement. "We're thrilled to announce this partnership with the City of Oshkosh, Greg Pierce and his team, and the incredible basketball fans throughout the Fox Valley. This new team will be an invalu- able resource for our basketball staff and an incredible vehicle for connecting with Wisconsin's passionate sports fans." "NBA teams are increasingly recogniz- ing the NBA D-League's value in providing opportunities to players, coaches and front office executives," said NBA D-League President Malcolm Turner. "A record two- thirds of NBA teams now own an NBA D- League affiliate, and I'm excited to welcome Wes Edens, Marc Lasry, Jamie Dinan and the Bucks to that list." The Oshkosh Common Council recently approved plans for a 3,500-seat arena that is expected to anchor the newly-designated Sawdust District located near Pioneer Drive Park along the shore of Lake Winnebago. Similar to the arena develop- ment under construction in Milwaukee, the Oshkosh arena project will serve as a cata- lyst for additional economic development in the surrounding area. The project calls for the 3,500-seat arena, which will also house a sports bar and team store, along with proposed future develop- ment that could include a hotel and addi- tional dining and entertainment venues. "I believe that Oshkosh's Central City is on the verge of a renaissance," Oshkosh Mayor Steve Cummings said in a state- ment. "When we pitched this idea, the Fox Valley's response was so immediate and enthusiastic, we knew this would be the ideal location for the team to expand," said Greg Pierce of Fox Valley Pro Basketball. "Building a new arena, bringing the Sawdust District vision to life and expand- ing the sports and entertainment options in our region will have a transformative impact on our community." As part of Wednesday's announcement, the Bucks also named BMO Harris Bank the first official sponsor of the new NBA D- League team. A longtime partner of the Bucks, BMO Harris Bank operates in near- ly 200 branches in the state of Wisconsin, including 12 in the Fox Valley. More than 75 NBA players have been assigned to the NBA D-League for develop- ment or rehabilitation this season, includ- ing half of the players selected in 2016 NBA Draft presented by State Farm. In total, more than 40 percent of the last five NBA Draft classes have honed their skills in the NBA D-League. Two current Bucks, Khris Middleton and Rashad Vaughn, have NBA D-League experience. In total, the Bucks have assigned 10 players since the 2005-'06 sea- son, the first when NBA teams were able to send players to the NBA D-League.
