Sam Hauser scored a career-high 31 points, Theo John tied a career-high with 14 points, and No. 15 Marquette held on to beat Georgetown 74-71 on Tuesday night despite Markus Howard – the nation’s fourth leading scorer – playing just three scoreless minutes due to lower back tightness.
John blocked Georgetown’s James Akinjo’s drive with four seconds left as Marquette (15-3, 4-1) won its fourth straight game.
Georgetown (12-6, 2-3) was led by Mac McClung with 24 points while Jessie Govan added 14 points and nine rebounds. McClung’s desperation 3-point heave from half court was off the mark.
Hauser, the team’s second leading scorer, picked up with Howard out by scoring 22 of his points in the second half including his basket to break a 70-all tie with less than a minute remaining. Howard took two of Marquette’s first three shots but went to the sideline early and attempted to stretch out his back but never returned.
The nation’s fourth leading scorer at 25.8 points per game, Howard had a career-high 53 points at Creighton on Jan. 9 to set a school and Big East scoring record.
Giannis Antetokounmpo had 12 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in his fourth triple-double of the season, and the Milwaukee Bucks cruised past the Miami Heat 124-86 on Tuesday night.
Eric Bledsoe had 17 points and Malcolm Brogdon added 16 for Milwaukee, which has won 13 of 16 dating to Dec. 14. The Bucks improved to 31-12, second-best in the NBA.
The Bucks play at Memphis tonight.
