WATCH: Purdue's Braden Smith Connects with Myles Colvin on Beautiful Alley-Oop
Purdue wasted no time getting its offense going in Saturday's matinee against Marshall. Braden Smith found Myles Colvin for a beautiful alley-oop one minute into the game.
The Boilermakers changed their starting lineup for Saturday's game, with Colvin and Cam Heide getting their first starts of the year. Colvin took advantage early, getting to the basket and throwing down a Smith assist in impressive fashion.
Pretty start.

Colvin had not scored a point in Purdue's last two games, though he has provided a huge spark defensively. Early on against Marshall, the sophomore was making an impact on both ends of the court. In the first four minutes, Colvin had scored seven points.
Purdue is looking to get a bounce-back victory after suffering its first loss of the season to Marquette on Tuesday.
