MILWAUKEE (AP) Despite Gov. Scott Walker joining the talks, no deal has been reached on financing a new arena for the Milwaukee Bucks.

Walker had his first face-to-face meeting Thursday with officials from the NBA team and others who have been working to reach a deal. But the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (http://bit.ly/1QR2ivK) reports there was no deal to finance the proposed $500 million downtown arena.

Walker did not take questions after the meeting. Earlier, he said he hopes to have a deal in the ''not too distant future.
