Rough ending to college career Moore (foot) provided zero points (0-1 FG) and one assist in three minutes during Thursday's 79-72 loss to Arkansas.

Impact Kansas' loss to Arkansas not only eradicates the 2024-25 Jayhawks from competition but also ends careers for some of their seniors, including Moore. Statistically, Moore's last season is his worst. The redshirt senior's 3.6 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game are all career worsts. Still, Moore's 2024-25 season was not all the way bad, considering he logged bests in field goal percentage (47.4) and turnovers per game (1.0).

Finding success as role player Moore had six points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT), three rebounds and two assists over 31 minutes during Saturday's 84-74 victory over Kansas State.

Impact Since entering the starting lineup back on Jan. 5, Moore has averaged 6.4 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.6 assists across five games. The numbers aren't necessarily eye-popping, and all represent decreases from last year at Mississippi State, but the Jayhawks are still having success with this alignment. They're going 4-1 in games Moore has started, with the only loss coming to currently-projected NCAA Tournament No. 1 seed Iowa State. Moore's ceiling will ultimately be limited with Zeke Mayo and David Coit also vying for minutes at shooting guard, but Moore at least appears to be pulling away from the latter based on the latest playing time trends.

Impact Moore made his first start of the season in this game, taking the spot that had previously been occupied by a combination of David Coit, Rylan Griffen and AJ Storr. The end result was season-best totals in scoring and assists, though the caliber of opponent should be taken into account here. It wouldn't be wise to significantly change expectations for Moore until a more consistent role is established.

Warming up Saturday Moore (ankle) is warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Oakland, Jack Ritter of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Moore was tabbed as "day-to-day" earlier in the week, so his presence in warmups isn't surprising, although it does mean a positive sign for his potential availability.

Should be available Moore (ankle) should be available for Kansas' game Monday against Howard, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.
