Seton Hall finally lost a game, but it caught two breaks since its 10-game winning streak was snapped on Saturday by Xavier. Sometimes, it’s that kind of year.

An MRI exam on senior guard Quincy McKnight’s injured left knee came back clean, revealing only a muscle strain, and the stout defender and second-leading scorer will be a game-time decision Wednesday night against Georgetown, coach Kevin Willard told The Post. Meanwhile, the Big East-leading Pirates (16-5, 8-1 Big East) look like they won’t have to deal with Georgetown’s leading scorer Mac McClung, who is unlikely to play Wednesday according to coach Patrick Ewing due to a foot injury.

While the Hoyas beat St. John’s without McClung on Sunday, his absence leaves them with six scholarship players, shortening an already small bench. Most importantly, though, is the status of McKnight, who went down awkwardly late in Saturday’s home loss to Xavier that snapped a 10-game winning streak. McKnight, the team’s floor general and one of its leaders is averaging 11.5 points, 5.3 assists and 1.8 steals and has keyed Seton Hall’s run to the top of the powerhouse conference.
