Marquette guard Markus Howard has been named the Big East Player of the Week for the fourth time this season and sixth time of his career.

Howard poured in a career high 53 points in a win over Creighton and averaged 39.5 points, 6 assists and 4 rebounds a game in a pair of wins last week.

Howard shot 47.8% (22-of-46) from the field overall and 56.5% (13-of-23) from behind the 3-point line.  He also hit 22-of-24 free throws (91.7%).

Howard is the only collegiate player in the last 20 years to have two 50-point games.  He scored 52 points in a 2017-18 overtime win at Providence.
