I'll be courtside tonight as the Panther men look for their fifth-straight league win, welcoming Valparaiso to the U.S. Cellular Arena.
This is the first game of a five-game homestand for UWM.

In case you missed it earlier today, Avery Smith was named the Horizon League Player of the Week. You can read about it here. And, thanks to the hustle by WTMJ-TV, which was out at shootaround today for a comment from Avo for the newscasts before the game tonight.
