Description: Wizards PG Shelvin Mack has been waived. He started at point guard in the first two games following his call-up from the D-League but quickly lost the job to Garrett Temple.
Insight: Mack averaged 5.3 points, 2.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists in seven games. Washington will go with Temple until John Wall is able to return from a season-long knee injury.

Description: Point guard Shelvin Mack will play Friday despite a groin injury and continue to start for Washington.
Insight: Mack put up six points, six rebounds, seven assists, one steal and two threes in his season debut Wednesday against Cleveland. His callup from the NBA D-League has bumped Jordan Crawford to the bench, but Crawford still scored 17 points on 7-15 shooting Wednesday and shouldn't be affected too much by the move.
