Since the Bucks' inaugural season, WTMJ/620 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, has served as the flagship station for the network. The network provides play-by-play and color commentary for games, along with pre-game and post-game shows.

Both parts are hosted by Justin Garcia. The network's announcers have included Ted Davis, who did play-by-play from 1997 to 2021, and Dennis Krause, who provided color commentary from 1996 to 2021.
