Milwaukee Bucks fans came prepared for Eric Bledsoe's home debut.

A row of Bucks supporters in attendance for Saturday's win over the Los Angeles Lakers welcomed their new starting point guard with this message:

Bucks fans: He wants to be here

Bledsoe joined the Bucks earlier in the week via trade from the Phoenix Suns, just weeks after tweeting: "I don't wanna be here." He was fined $10,000 for the infamous post, though he denies it had anything to do with the Suns.

Milwaukee is 2-0 with its new floor general, who's averaging 12 points, 4.5 assists, three rebounds, and a steal in 30 minutes.
