Picture of him shooting from top to bottom of the page is pretty awesome to see. Chicago media rarely gives Marquette any pub so this is cool to see. Especially because there is a small article next to Markus titled "Struggling Irish drop home game" ;D

He often refers to his favorite book, “The Jordan Rules,” to learn about how Michael Jordan polished his game. The last time he skimmed through it, he focused on how Jordan became more than a scoring machine by developing other areas.

Let's hope his emulating MJ stops before the compulsive gambling and womanizing.

Five eleven-ish. That's all I am going to say.

And here’s another Marcus article (again the Athletic paywall- it is worth it):
