Yi Jianlian will arrive in his new home town, Milwaukee, later today, and he is expected to practice with the Bucks on Thursday.

First, though, he'll arrive from Shanghai to Chicago 's O'Hare International Airport and then drive to Milwaukee.

Along the drive, he'll be welcomed by six Clear Channel digital outdoor billboards, including one at I-94 and National Avenue. Some of the boards will change messages along the route.

From all of us at OnMilwaukee.com, welcome to Milwaukee, Yi!
