Tuesday evening is a great night for Milwaukee Bucks fans. 

The team got their championship rings on their home court before they played the Brooklyn Nets. 

A video of Giannis Antetokounmpo getting his ring can be seen in a video that is embedded below from Bleacher Report. 

Antetokounmpo now adds a championship ring to his resume that includes two MVP's, a Defensive Player of The Year Award and multiple All-Star and All-NBA seasons. 

The Bucks beat the Phoenix Suns in six games last season to win the NBA Finals. 

Tuesday's game is not only the first game of the regular season, but also a rematch of last season's second round matchup. 

The Bucks beat the Nets in seven games, and won the pivotal Game 7 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. 

Most of the Bucks key players return from last season. 

Meanwhile, the Nets are without their seven-time All-Star guard who is out due to not being vaccinated. 

He did not travel with the team to Milwaukee, and will not be part of the organization until he can be a full-time participant.
