Name that tune.
Tonight’s primetime NBA Sunday Showdown game will see the Milwaukee Bucks take on the Chicago Bulls. Going out live on BT Sport 2 at 8:30pm, the Bulls will host the Bucks at the United Center as they look to improve on their 12th standing in the Eastern Conference with a record of 18-31.
The Bucks are in a transitional period after the team’s coach, Jason Kidd, was fired last week, but they continue to fight for a playoff spot. And let’s be honest, you can never count them out when they’ve got the newly selected NBA All-Star Giannis Antetokounmpo in the lineup.
So what’s going to inspire the Bulls to victory? With music a key element of many athletes’ workout regime and getting them mentally prepared before a game, we wanted to find out what it was the Chicago Bulls listen to ahead of going to war on the court.
