Moore began his college career at Cal State Bakersfield. He played for the Roadrunners from 2016 to 2021, earning first-team All-Big West Conference honors as a senior. He struggled with injuries during his CSUB career, missing the entire 2017–18 season with a broken tibia and fibula in his right knee.[2] [3] Following the 2020–21 season, he entered the NCAA transfer portal.[4]
Moore ultimately chose the University of Houston and coach Kelvin Sampson for his final year of eligibility. He was a starter for a Cougars team that went 32–6, averaging 10.4 points and 4.9 rebounds in his sole season with the team.
After going undrafted in the 2022 NBA draft, Moore joined the Brooklyn Nets for the 2022 NBA Summer League[5] and on August 4, 2024, he signed with BG Göttingen of the Basketball Bundesliga,[6] where he played one game before leaving the team on October 6.[7]
On October 22, 2022, Moore joined the Texas Legends of the NBA G League after being selected 9th overall in the 2022 NBA G League draft.[8] Across the 2022–23 season, he averaged 13.9 points, 3.7 assists and 6.7 rebounds per game.[9]
On October 16, 2023, Moore signed with the Dallas Mavericks,[10] but was waived the next day.[11] Twelve days later, he rejoined the Legends[12] and on January 11, 2024, he was traded to the Rip City Remix.[13]
On January 20, 2024, Moore signed a 10-day contract with the Portland Trail Blazers,[14] [15] making his NBA debut the next day. He scored two points and recorded a steal in 4 minutes off the bench.[16] The move made Moore the first player in Remix franchise history to earn an NBA call-up.[17] On January 30, he returned to the Remix.[18] On April 14, he signed with the Trail Blazers for the rest of the season.[19]
On April 18, 2024, Moore signed with the Vancouver Bandits of the Canadian Elite Basketball League.[20]
