MILWAUKEE (June 13, 2025) – The Milwaukee Bucks are saddened by the passing of long-time official scorer and crew chief Bob Wanek.

Bob was a mainstay in his scorer’s table seat at Bucks games at the Milwaukee Arena, Bradley Center and Fiserv Forum for more than 50 years. He befriended countless players, coaches, officials, broadcasters and staff during his extraordinary tenure, and always did so with a smile.

Bob took great pride in his meticulous score-keeping and in-depth knowledge of the NBA rule book. He considered the Bucks as his second family.

The Bucks will always appreciate Bob for his long dedication to the organization. Our deepest condolences go out to his family, friends and fellow stats crew members.
