Shaka Smart provided updates on the Marquette men’s basketball team’s health Wednesday at a media availability.

The last time the Golden Eagles’ played in front of other people Oct. 5 at the Blue & Gold scrimmage, first-year Damarius Owens (groin) and sophomore Tre Norman (shoulder) sat out with injuries — along with Sean Jones as he recovers from an ACL tear he suffered in January.

Since then, Marquette has played two closed-door scrimmages, one against Missouri and the other against Oklahoma.
