OSHKOSH, Wis. - The Wisconsin Herd, NBA G League affiliate of the Milwaukee Bucks, have partnered with BMO to create one-of-a-kind jerseys that feature the artwork of five local students. The jerseys, which the Herd will wear during the game on Monday, March 13 against the Memphis Hustle with tip-off set for 6:00 p.m., are being created as a fundraiser for the Oshkosh Kids Foundation. The jerseys will be up for bidding at the game or online at https://herdart.givesmart.com.

Students were asked to draw a picture of what the Wisconsin Herd meant to them, and pictures ranged from Pointer with cheese antlers to showcasing inclusivity within basketball. 2,600 students from over 25 schools submitted their artwork and a panel of team members and BMO staff picked five to feature on these one-of-a-kind jerseys. The winners of this competition are from Oakwood Elementary, Xavier High School, Omro Elementary, Perry Tipler Middle School and Carl Traeger Elementary. Each winner will receive a personalized jersey and will be acknowledged at the Wisconsin Herd game on Monday, March 13.

Fans can bid on the jerseys online at https://herdart.givesmart.com and at the game on Monday, March 13. The auction is open now until Monday, March 17 at noon. Proceeds will benefit the Oshkosh Kids Foundation, which helps children and struggling families achieve stable housing, economic security, educational focus, and post-secondary transition to self-sufficient lives.

Tickets for the game can be purchased by visiting wisconsinherd.com, or by calling 920-233-HERD.
