Xavier opened Big East Conference play with a win over DePaul at the end of December.

The Musketeers, stuck on a five-game losing streak, host DePaul Saturday night (8 p.m., FS1) with a chance to collect the first win in almost a month.

Xavier 31, DePaul 30, HALFTIME — Despite both teams starting the game 1 for 11 from the floor, the offense picked up down the stretch in the first half.

Naji Marshall saved a pretty miserable offensive first half for Xavier.
