MILWAUKEE, Wis. (WFRV) - While the Bucks found themselves in an intense battle inside the Fiserv Forum against the Cavaliers Saturday night, Milwaukee Bucks fan favorite, Bobby Portis, says his house was burglarized.

The two people shown in the video did reportedly make it inside and many of Portis's prized possessions were said to have been stolen.
Along with the surveillance video, Portis posted a video message saying that Milwaukee has been his home for the last four and a half seasons.
He added that he has grown into a man during his time in Milwaukee and the love he's gotten from Bucks fans is something he hasn't gotten before throughout his ten-year NBA career.
Portis then cited how he helps out in the community by participating in food drives, talking to the youth, and inviting underserved groups to games.
