Damarius Owens - Set to miss opener at least Owens will miss Marquette's opener against Stony Brook and potentially more games as he deals with a toe injury suffered in a scrimmage against Oklahoma, Ben Steele of the Milwauke...
Impact Owens also contended with a groin injury this preseason, but it's his toe injury that will reportedly keep him out of the opener and perhaps longer. Owens figures to be a rotational wing for the Golden Eagles this season as a freshman.

Tre Norman - Injured before team scrimmage Norman did not play during Marquette's team scrimmage Saturday due to a shoulder injury, per Ben Steele of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Impact Norman's shoulder injury explains why he sat out Marquette's latest scrimmage, which is expected to be the 2024-25 Golden Eagles' last should they not add another before Nov. 4. That is when their regular season is expected to begin with a game against Stony Brook.

Sean Jones - Sits out team scrimmage Jones (knee) did not play during Marquette's team scrimmage Saturday, according to Ben Steele of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Impact At least for now, Saturday was the Marquette Golden Eagles' lone scrimmage or exhibition of their 2024-25 season. Assuming they do not add another scrimmage or exhibition, ideally a month can pass by with at least some update of Jones' knee status before the regular season begins. For Marquette, it commences with a Nov. 4 game against Stony Brook.

Sean Jones - Still not fully cleared Jones (knee) is not fully cleared for basketball-related activities, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.
Impact Despite it being almost half a year since Jones personally suffered an ACL tear, him not being at 100 percent physically is far from reassuring. However, it is worth noting that the severity of Jones' injury was expected to cause a long-term absence, which would have been more than six months. Also, four months remain before Marquette's 2024-25 season begins, giving him at least a good chunk of time to recover.
