Bucks vs. Raptors exhibition game cancelled due to slippery floor
Friday night's game between the Bucks and Raptors was cancelled only minutes into the first quarter after a number of players struggled to stay on their feet at BMO Harris Bradley Center.
There is something seriously wrong with the Bradley Center court, 4 players have slipped like it's ice in 4 mins of Tor-Mil exhibition game

Cue the jokes about Milwaukee's new-look court having something to do with this disaster. But at least the Bucks' cheerleaders made the sure the fans in Milwaukee didn't go home empty-handed.
Bucks cheerleaders continue to dance on the slippery baselines. They are heroes who won't let adverse conditions stop them.

Compensation has been provided to fans who purchased tickets.
People will be able to use their ticket from this preseason game to any regular season game in November. So that's a plus.

And those who were still in attendance when the game was called were also invited to shoot free throws on the court. That's right. Too dangerous for the players but safe enough for the fans.
