CHICAGO- The UIC men's basketball team returns to the hardwood this Thursday, Jan. 21 to host Valparaiso at the UIC Pavilion beginning at 7 p.m.

The game between the Flames (5-12, 1-6 Horizon League) and the Crusaders (8-11, 3-4 Horizon League) will air live on ESPN Radio 1000 AM. A live video webstream will also be available on horizonleaguenetwork.tv/uic.

The men's game will follow the UIC women's basketball team's game against Milwaukee, which begins at 4:30 p.m. inside the Pavilion.

Junior guard Robo Kreps will seek to continue his offensive success against the Crusaders. Last year he averaged 24.0 ppg in a pair of win over Valparaiso, including a season-high 25 in an 83-76 comeback road win on Feb. 15, 2009 that featured six three-point buckets made by Kreps.

The Flames wrap up their current three-game homestand against No. 20 Butler this Saturday, Jan. 23 at 1 p.m.
