Men’s basketball team sheds hope for communities

The Marquette men’s basketball team has been spending some time off the court to give back to the community. With a global pandemic and protests making up most of the headlines in the country, the team is doing some good for those around them.

Both players and coaches have been actively involved in Milwaukee and its local communities over the past two months.

Senior forward, Theo John, and his family have donated over $400 worth of educational toys and craft kits to the Minneapolis community. John also participated in a peaceful protest in Minneapolis with former Marquette forward, Sacar Anim, following the death of George Floyd.
