Wayne Ellington issued a warning to Gerald Henderson on Friday when the two reached the playing floor at the Smith Center for their AAU team's first game. Ellington told Henderson that he was stepping on hallowed ground, pointing out that the court is home to one of college basketball's top programs and to this year's NCAA champion. He also told Henderson to behave and not leave scuff marks.
