The Scoop: Jaquez did a little bit of everything during Friday's loss, and the third-year pro finished second on the Heat in points, rebounds and assists behind Norman Powell (38 points), Kel'el Ware (10 rebounds) and Davion Mitchell (10 assists), respectively. Jaquez has enjoyed a larger role off the bench due in large part to the absence of Tyler Herro (heel) to start the 2025-26 campaign. Through eight games in November, Jaquez has averaged 18.3 points, 7.8 rebounds and 5.6 assists over 30.8 minutes per contest.

 The Scoop: Da Silva got the starting nod with Paolo Banchero (groin) unavailable and made the most of the opportunity, taking advantage of a favorable matchup with the defensively-challenged Nets. It's unclear if Banchero will be able to make it back for Sunday's game in Houston, but groin injuries can be tricky, so plucking up Da Silva from the waiver wire wouldn't be the worst idea.

 The Scoop: Marshall will draw the start due to the absences of P.J. Washington (shoulder) and Anthony Davis (calf). It'll be Marshall's first start of the campaign. In his last four games, the 27-year-old forward is averaging 16.8 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.5 steals across 26.8 minutes.

 The Scoop: Champagnie was added to the injury report Thursday due to a right hip contusion, but he's been upgraded to available, meaning he should handle his regular workload. Champagnie is averaging 9.2 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.8 three-pointers in 28.0 minutes across 11 appearances (eight starts) this season.

 The Scoop: Lively is making his first appearance since Oct. 26 after missing nine consecutive games with a sprained knee. Given the lengthy layoff, Lively will be limited to no more than 18 minutes during Friday's contest. He should share center duties with Daniel Gafford.

 The Scoop: It appears Westbrook has beaten out Schroder for the starting point guard position in Sacramento, so his arrow is pointing up. Across six starts this season, Westbrook has compiled averages of 18.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 2.8 triples, 1.2 steals and 3.8 turnovers per game.

 The Scoop: Da Silva will earn his first start of the season with Paolo Banchero (groin) unavailable, putting him on the radar as a potential streamer target in deep leagues. Across 38 starts last season, Da Silva produced averages of 9.2 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.3 triples per contest.

 The Scoop: Jackson is set to miss his sixth straight game Saturday, and the Pacers have not provided any updates on his recovery from the hamstring injury. Until he's cleared for 5-on-5 work, we can assume he's not close and will consider him week-to-week.

 The Scoop: Saturday will mark Tyson's third straight game on the sidelines, and for now, he should be considered questionable at best for Monday's matchup with Milwaukee. With Tyson unavailable Saturday, expect more minutes for Dean Wade and Nae'Qwan Tomlin.

 The Scoop: Prosper played 26 minutes during Wednesday's blowout loss, but the third-year wing has picked up an injury since. A two-way player, Prosper had appeared in just three of the Grizzlies' previous eight games despite being healthy.
