Adding a new records to missing rows

Hello SQL Expert,

Below is my simple SQL query:

SELECT Date, hours
FROM Timesheet_tbl

And here is the result set I ran for November. I have missing records because of the weekend. What I am trying to add is add missing row from previous row data. So Saturday will have Friday data, Sunday will have Saturday data.

Ex: 11/02/2019 (Saturday) will have the same date on 11/01/2019 and 11/03/2019 will have the same data on Saturday 11/02/2019.

The same concept apply for 11/09/2019, 11/10/2019, 11/16/2019 and 11/17/2019 (Saturday and Sunday)

How do I add records to missing date records?
