Howard Is A Big Man On The Court


Special to BIGEAST.com

NEW YORK – Standing just 5-feet, 11-inches by today’s standards Markus Howard is not a BMOC (Big Man on Court).

But by many other metrics, the Marquette junior guard is definitely a BMOC.

He averaged 25.0 points a game and his 24.9 scoring mark in league play made him BIG EAST scoring champion. Howard led the league with 112 3-pointers by shooting a deadly 41.6 percent from beyond the arc.

In overtime win against Creighton on Jan.9, Howard broke his own BIG EAST single-game scoring record with 53 points.
