The skinny: First-year Green Bay coach Brian Wardle, a Hinsdale Central graduate and former Daily Herald DuPage County player of the year, brings a team to Chicago for the first time. His Phoenix pounded the Flames 74-50 on Jan. 15 as UIC senior Robo Kreps suffered through one of his tougher shooting nights. He made just 1 of 9 overall and missed all six 3-point attempts. The Flames missed all 12 of their 3-point tries that night. UIC has resuscitated its 3-point touch since, but Howard Moore’s club made just 5 of 15 free throws in Monday’s 72-65 loss at Butler.
