Marquette had 21 assists on 27 made field goals, marking the season’s second-highest assist rate (Assist/Field Goals made) and the best in Big East play at 77.7%.

“We are a much better team when we move and share the ball,” Consuegra said. “We get multiple actions within our offense, and we did that really well today.”

The Golden Eagles aren’t known as a 3-point juggernaut, but when the looks are open, uncontested shots created by unselfish passing can be dangerous from the outside.
