Marquette Golden Eagles News
David Joplin notched 17 points (5-7 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 18 minutes during Friday’s 70-68 victory over UConn. Joplin co-led Marquette in scoring, raining in threes despite battling foul trouble. Also, his physicality on defense was an X-Factor in Marquette’s win. The sophomore was averaging just 5.6 points per game over his last 10 contests, but his microwave scoring upside is huge for Marquette’s depth.
