Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports

Villanova guard Justin Moore is out for the team's Big East opener against No. 12 Creighton on Wednesday in Omaha, Neb.

Moore sustained a knee injury during the first half of the Wildcats' 72-71 overtime loss at Kansas State on Dec. 5. He sat out Villanova's 65-56 win over UCLA four days later.

Moore is averaging 13.3 points and a team-best 2.2 assists per game for Villanova (7-4), which inserted Jordan Longino into the starting lineup versus the Bruins.
