While donning the Nike N7 turquoise uniforms for Native American Heritage Night the Marquette men’s basketball team responded to their Tuesday loss at Purdue with a 95-58 win over LIU.
“It was exciting to see our guys so happy to be out there playing together,” head coach Shaka Smart said. “It was great to getting back on a court just a couple days after the Purdue game.”
Junior forward Olivier-Maxence Prosper was firing on all cylinders offensively, scoring a career high 31 points.
“I just let the game come to me,” Prosper said.
Marquette opened the game scoring the first five points and took an 11-4 lead into the under-16 media timeout.
