The ‘Deflategate’ Story in the NFL is all over the place.
Even in the NBA, as evidence last night from the above tweet off the Milwaukee Bucks twitter account that shows the Bucks mascot, ‘Bango’ was caught by someone in the equipment room tampering with the basketball.
Then during the game, Bango further inspects the balls and sees how they bounce and gets caught once again inspecting the balls.
Bango has no chill!! https://t.co/lqdSe8QZDf

Not sure how a deflated or over inflated basketball would help in the NBA but it is funny to see a team not afraid to take a chance to make a funny joke about a controversial topic that’s happening in the sports world.
Well, it didn’t seem to help as the Bucks couldn’t get the ball to bounce their way last night against the Utah Jazz as they couldn’t get a late, last second shot to fall when it mattered the most.
It just bounced right out and the BMO Bradley Center and fans in Milwaukee were left…deflated.
