Also, Zion is questionable as well.

The Wildcats (19-11 against the spread) have won two consecutive contests ATS, clinching the Big East regular season title with Marquette’s three straight outright losses. Meanwhile, the Pirates (13-16 ATS) snapped their own three-game skid by beating the Golden Eagles on Wednesday.
Villanova is on the verge on clinching the No. 1 seed in the Big East tournament, so Seton Hall’s has plenty more to play for — with a ticket to March Madness on the line. Kevin Willard’s group has a revenge spot, too, suffering a 28-point loss to Jay Wright’s crew on Jan. 27.
The Pirates boast an advantage defensively, yielding the third-lowest 3-point scoring rate (31.6%) in Big East play. Guard Phil Booth (18.7 points per game) and the Wildcats have manufactured the highest 3-point scoring percentage (44.5%), relying on their perimeter offense at a top-10 rate across the country as well.
Expect Willard’s unit to stymie them defensively, led by Quincy McKnight’s stellar on-ball defense (3.6% steal rate).
At the other end, Seton Hall’s leading-scorer Myles Powell (22.7 ppg) will be able to take advantage of Villanova’s struggling perimeter defense (Big East’s second-highest 3-point scoring rate). Its interior defense has also proven inconsistent throughout league play, allowing the Pirates to benefit from their league-leading 2-point scoring rate (54.1%).
