CHICAGO, Ill. — David Joplin started both the first and second halves the same way — by nailing a 3-pointer.

Joplin made a career-high eight threes in Marquette men’s basketball’s last visit to Wintrust Arena. Wednesday, the junior forward finished with six.

“He obviously feels good about this this hotel that we stay in across the street,” Marquette head coach Shaka Smart said.

Joplin had a similar idea.

“Great stay, great hospitality, maybe that’s it, I don’t know,” Joplin said.
