MILWAUKEE – Avery Woodson, a Mississippi native, is so cold in Milwaukee that he wore a parka to a pregame news conference held inside a warm basketball arena. At least his teammates did not mock him for that.
“They know where I’m from,” he said. “I’m not used to this cold weather. They had no problem with me wearing that jacket.”
To make himself comfortable, Woodson heated up the BMO Harris Bradley Center on Thursday.
He sank five of his six 3-pointers in the first half, and No. 4 seed Butler went on to defeat No.
