The Green Bay Phoenix are an absolute mess right now with the losses piling up, and they’re shooting just 41.8 percent from the field in their last five games. The UIC Flames have had issues on the road this season and aren’t playing well overall in their own right, but they’ve shown us a lot more this year than Green Bay. Not a game I’d touch personally, but I’d side with UIC if forced to pick.
