Bobby Portis Jr. Seeks Justice After Intruders Attempt Break-In During Bucks vs. Cavs Game

Bobby Portis Jr. has embraced Milwaukee as his home, pouring his heart into the community through charitable work and events for local youth. But the Milwaukee Bucks star is feeling let down after two burglars attempted to break into his home while he was playing in Saturday night’s game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Taking to social media on Sunday, Portis shared a video expressing his love for Milwaukee, calling it the first place in his 10-year NBA journey that truly feels like home. He highlighted his commitment to the Cream City, saying, “I’ve been doing food drives, speaking to the youth, and just trying to make this place better for everyone. This is my home, so why wouldn’t I want to give back?”

However, that sense of security was shaken when he discovered two masked individuals attempting to break into his residence while he was on the court. In the surveillance footage Portis posted, the intruders—dressed in snow jackets and ski masks—can be seen with flashlights, seemingly working on the lock outside his front door.

Portis is now calling on the public for help, offering a reward for any information that leads to the return of his belongings or the identification of the burglars. “If you know anything, please come forward,” he urged, hoping someone in the community can assist him in tracking down the culprits.

Despite the unsettling incident, Portis put up a solid performance against the Cavaliers, scoring 10 points and grabbing eight rebounds in what ended up being a close 114-113 loss.
