Bucks forward Kyle Kuzma’s home in Bayside, Wis., was burglarized Wednesday night while the Bucks played the Lakers at Fiserv Forum, according to TMJ4.
Police said personal belongings were stolen but did not specify what was taken. Investigators found no signs of forced entry and believe the home was targeted, the station reported.
Surveillance video obtained by TMJ4 showed four people running through a nearby backyard at about 8:55 p.m. Wednesday. Police received a call about the burglary around 1 a.m. Thursday. Neither Kuzma nor the Bucks had commented publicly as of Friday morning, according to Fadeaway World.
This is the second reported burglary at a Bucks player’s home during a game in the past two years. Bobby Portis’ home in nearby River Hills was broken into in November 2024 while he was playing against the Cavs. Among the items stolen was his 2021 championship ring. Portis, now with the Heat, offered a reward for information that could help recover his belongings or lead to arrests.
Luka Doncic’s Dallas home was also burglarized in December 2024, when he was still with the Mavericks. The FBI warned sports leagues that year about organized groups targeting professional athletes’ homes. Police are still investigating the burglary at Kuzma’s home, and authorities have yet to publicly link it to any of the earlier cases.
The Bucks lost Wednesday’s game 123-112, dropping to 1-11. Kuzma is averaging 10.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists this season.
