Mayo GAA star Aidan O'Shea and girlfriend enjoy USA trip as they attend NBA game in Milwaukee

Mayo GAA star Aidan O'Shea and girlfriend Kristin McKenzie Vass enjoyed a trip to an NBA game as the pair took a trip to the USA.

O'Shea is gearing up for another season with Mayo as the Westerners are hoping for another charge at the Sam Maguire but made sure to fit some time for a trip away as his side continue their pre-season preparation.

The Mayo legend is a known basketball enthusiast and ticked an NBA game off his bucket list as the pair attended Milwaukee Bucks and Golden State Warriors.

O'Shea shared snaps as both he and McKenzie Vass managed to get photos on the court and were seated only a few rows from courtside.

Sharing the snaps, O'Shea said: "NBA Road trip game 1 Great to see @patconnaughton & Greek Freak in action in Milwaukee. #nba #blowoutwin #milwakeebucks #warriors #fearthedeer #roadtrip"

And O'Shea and McKenzie Vass were in for a treat as the reigning NBA Champions beat 2018 Champions 118-99.

It was a rare off night for MVP contender Steph Curry as he scored 12 points.

However, two-tome MVP and reigning NBA Finals MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 30 points as well as 12 rebounds and 11 assists.

And Mayo fans will be hoping O'Shea will be back in time for National League action as they return to Division One.

Mayo will not play their league games in MacHale Park this year as it undergoes renovations and will host Donegal in their opening game in Markievicz Park, Sligo on January 30.
