As a rookie, it seems like Christopher “Chris” Livingston is channeling all of his energy into proving himself. From his days as a five-star recruit to becoming the Milwaukee Bucks’ final pick, Chris is building an interesting story for himself. The 21-year-old forward is slowly stepping into the spotlight, and those who follow him are curious about his life off the court.

Is Milwaukee Bucks’ star Chris Livingston dating anybody?

As of now, Chris appears to be single. There is no public information about his current relationship status. Scrolling through his social media or reading up on him, there are no hints of a romantic partner. Given that he is in the early stages of his professional career, not much is available about him. But as his career progresses, it will be interesting to see if he opens up more about his life off the court.

Although he keeps a low profile, sometimes Chris shares about his journey on social media. He comes from the city of Akron in Ohio, the hometown of NBA legend LeBron James. Livingston started playing basketball at the age of 5 with his twin brother Cordell on the courts of his high school.

Chris attended the Buchtel Community Learning Center, where he led his team as a freshman, to their first state final-four appearance since 1997. Then, he transferred to Western Reserve Academy and earned MaxPreps Sophomore All-American first-team honors. Later on, he joined the Oak Hill Academy. One of his unforgettable matches was during the final season where he dropped 50 points, grabbed 20 rebounds, and recorded 8 steals.

His journey from FIBA to NBA

Livingston represented the United States at the FIBA Under-16 Americas Championship in Belém, Brazil, held in 2019. He put up 23 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 assists in a 94–77 victory over Canada in the final, earning a gold medal for his team, and the tournament’s most valued player honor for himself.

For his outstanding accolades, he became a five-star recruit, and offers from several major programs came pouring in. Chris chose the University of Kentucky for their program under coach John Calipari. The Bucks saw his potential with the Kentucky Wildcats and took a chance on him in the freshman season as he was the final pick during the 2023 NBA Draft.

Despite being the last selection, Livingston signed a four-year, $7.7 million rookie contract—the largest deal ever for a player picked at his position. He is represented by Rich Paul of Klutch Sports Group and mentored by LeBron.

Chris has played in 21 games in his rookie season and his minutes have been limited. Averaging just 1.2 points and 1 rebound per game, he’s trying to find his place in Milwaukees’ rotation. It’s likely that he will spend some time with the Wisconsin Herd in the G League, where he can get more playing time and improve his skills.

Chris Livingston’s story is still unfolding and his journey in the NBA is just beginning. While he may not be making headlines yet, the Bucks have high hopes for him. For now, though, fans will just have to wait as he continues to develop. There’s no telling just how far his story could go.
