Creighton star Marcus Zegarowski is questionable for this week’s Big East Tournament, head coach Greg McDermott said Monday.
Zegarowski injured his right knee in Sunday’s 77-60 win over Seton Hall that clinched the No. 1 seed in the conference tournament. Zegarowski went for 23 points with five 3-pointers in the game.
“Still no update at this time,” McDermott said Monday. “I think we have an MRI scheduled for later this morning which will tell us a little bit more but no update at this time and really no idea whether he’ll be able to play Thursday.”
The 6-foot-2 sophomore is averaging 16.2 points and 3.8 rebounds.

You can see how badly he wanted this one for his team, his coach & #Creighton
Really hoping his injury isn’t anything major – the NCAA Tournament without this kid playing in it just wouldn’t be the same #GoJays pic.twitter.com/adQZXarBwc
At noon Thursday, the top-seeded Bluejays will play the winner of Wednesday’s game between No. 8 Georgetown and No. 9 St. John’s.
