The Milwaukee Bucks are NBA Champions and like any champion in any sport, they were gifted a custom WWE Championship.
It's no secret the Bucks are big wrestling fans, engaging in pre-game matches, led by Giannis Antetokounmpo, throughout the season in past years.
Bucks star Bobby Portis was present at the championship parade, sporting his new WWE Title.

Portis became a hero in Milwaukee for his contributions during the playoffs, often earning "BOBBY! BOBBY! BOBBY!" chants from the crowd.
Another Bobby, reigning WWE Champion Bobby Lashley, responded to Portis walking around with the title on social media.
The @WWE Championship looks good on you @BPortistime! Maybe I’ll see you at #WWEMilwaukee next weekend at @fiservforum ---- https://t.co/rhHurJWTt9

Lashley should do better than Nikola Mirotic, who was famously sent to the hospital by Portis in 2017 after an altercation that ended with Portis punching him in the face.
WWE is set to host a Supershow in Milwaukee on July 31.
