Villanova's Justin Moore is out for the Big East opener at Creighton and likely Saturday's game at DePaul due to a right knee sprain sustained on Dec. 5. Nebraska's Rienk Mast underwent minor knee surgery and will be out until early January, impacting the team's performance and postseason prospects. Mast's absence is crucial for Nebraska, which will rest and recharge during a nine-day stretch without a game.
Wednesday night wasn't pretty. But the #Huskers will take a 10-2 record as they head into a long stretch without a game. Time to rest and recharge — especially for Rienk Mast, who Nebraska needs. https://t.co/GRiHFteP67

Brutal for Nebraska. Bad for MSU. Mast stirs the drink for the Huskers. If he’s not back quickly, they will lose games they wouldn’t have otherwise and maybe miss the postseason because of it, and their metrics will be lower, which impacts MSU, which lost there when they had him. https://t.co/yU6wBtsdgd

Guard Justin Moore (right knee sprain) is out for tonight's game at No. 12 Creighton. Moore injured his knee on Dec. 5 at Kansas State and was sidelined for the Wildcats' 65-56 win over UCLA on Dec. 9.
Justin Moore is out tonight for Villanova's Big East opener at Creighton, according to a source. Would expect him to also be out Saturday at DePaul. The conference home opener on Jan. 3 seems like a good target.
