Bucks Announcer Lisa Byington on Buck’s Pride Night
Pride Night.
It’s important to me and my wife to work for, and be a part of, an organization that makes us feel respected, appreciated and seen.
Love comes in many different ways.
Thank you to the @Bucks for recognizing everyone. pic.twitter.com/U8lrcIQdjz

Didn’t really know what to write for the post title. Just glad that the Bucks as an organization are open to queer folks like me. Great to see Lisa Byington post about how the organization makes her feel respected.
Now let’s get this dub tonight!
Didn’t even know she was gay. She’s done a fine job as an announcer that’s all I can ask. Hope she stays with the team for a while.
I think she’s cool 🫶🏽
I find it quite refreshing that I had no idea she was gay. It’s great she can drop this casually without worrying about persecution nor having to make it part of her identity.
Lisa is a total pro and I think she’s done a really good job follow a legend like Jim.
I don’t understand the hate she gets. I mean, I know the reason why, I just don’t understand it.
All the real ones love Lisa. Fuck all of you who hate her for no real reason
Lisa rocks and it’s pretty awesome that we got even a decent announcer after Jim left. Let alone one of her talent. Her and Marques are fantastic together.
Lisa is a true pro. I enjoy the Byington/Johnson broadcasts more than any in the league by far. I’ll always miss Jim, but she’s developed a consistently non-flat and engaging dynamic with MJ that is so much better than most other teams. She knows her shit as well and it feels like she enjoys the city a lot; I hope that she sticks around.
I’ll be watching a different game on GamePass sometimes, and i’ve learned that we truly are lucky in Milwaukee.
DJ Shawna bout to get that place TURNT THE FUCK UP!
Lisa has been the perfect transition since Jim. She’s done an amazing job for us in her role.
Hoo boy, title had me nervous I was going to be mad at Lisa. Good on the Bucks and her.
That’s cool I still don’t want to have to listen to her every Bucks game.
I think she does an awesome job
So if anyone criticizes Lisa now u r just a homophobe, oh great
