Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Returning to bench role
Jaquez won't start Friday against the Nuggets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Jaquez was excellent in a starting role during Jimmy Butler's seven-game suspension, averaging 14.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.7 steals per game while starting in all but one of those contests. However, Butler will return to the starting lineup against Denver, so Jaquez will return to his regular bench role. Therefore, the second-year forward out of UCLA should experience some regression in his numbers.

Jaquez closed Thursday's 97-92 victory over the Jazz with 20 points (7-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 36 minutes.
Jaquez has been excellent since being promoted to a starting role, scoring over 15 points in his three consecutive starts while posting a triple-double Jan. 6.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Posts triple-double Monday
Jaquez contributed 16 points (7-15 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 12 rebounds, 10 assists, one block and five steals over 46 minutes during Monday's 123-118 double-overtime loss to the Kings.
Jaquez was the biggest beneficiary of Jimmy Butler's (suspension) absence and recorded a triple-double for the first time in his career. Jaquez seems to be a better fit for the small forward role compared to other options available on the Heat roster and could remain in a starting role for the foreseeable future, especially if Butler is traded.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Logs five swipes against Orlando
Jaquez tallied 15 points (4-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists, five steals and one block over 31 minutes in Thursday's 89-88 win over the Magic.
Jaquez got the start for a second straight game Thursday due to the absence of Jimmy Butler (illness).

Jaquez will likely retreat to the bench against the Hawks on Saturday as Butler is expected to play in that contest, per Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: First double-double in spot start
Jaquez closed with 19 points (5-14 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 9-12 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and three steals in 36 minutes during Monday's 108-89 loss to Boston.
Starting at small forward for the injured Jimmy Butler (knee), Jaquez tallied his first double-double of the season while leading the Heat in rebounds (10) and co-leading the team in points (19) with Tyler Herro. Jaquez typically registers a noticeable improvement in fantasy appeal as a member of Miami's first unit dating back to the 23-year-old former first-rounder's rookie season a year ago, averaging 15.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 32.9 minutes across 21 games as a starter since 2023-24. If Butler is unable to return for Wednesday's tilt against the Lakers, Jaquez would be a quality streaming option with a short-term boost in value for fantasy managers.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Good to go Sunday
Jacquez (ankle) isn't listed on Miami's injury report for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.
Jacquez dealt with a sprained ankle throughout the week, but he returned to practice Friday and has been cleared to face the Mavs. Jimmy Butler (illness) is questionable for Sunday's tilt, and Jacquez could see an expanded role if Butler sits.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Returns to practice
Jaquez (ankle) participated in Friday's practice, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Jaquez's return to practice is a good sign for his availability against Dallas on Sunday after he missed Miami's last contest with a sprained right ankle. Still, fantasy managers should look out for an official injury report to clarify Jaquez's status for the game.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Doesn't practice Thursday
Jaquez (ankle) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Will not play Monday
Jaquez (ankle) will not play Monday against the 76ers.
Jaquez suffered a right ankle sprain Sunday against the Pacers and was unable to return, and he said after that contest that he expects to miss some time. With Terry Rozier (foot) also out Monday, Jimmy Butler (ankle) will likely see heavy usage in his return from a four-game absence. Duncan Robinson and Josh Richardson could be more involved as well.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: X-rays negative on ankle
Jaquez told reporters after Sunday's 119-110 loss to the Heat that he expects to miss time due to a right ankle sprain, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
The good news for Jaquez is X-rays didn't reveal any further damage to his right ankle. He'll likely be sidelined for Monday's contest against the 76ers, but the Heat's following game doesn't take place until Sunday, Nov. 24 against the Mavericks, so the second-year forward may just miss one game as a result. Jaquez's absence opens the door for more playing time off the bench for Duncan Robinson, Nikola Jovic and Josh Richardson, and Alec Burks may also join the rotation after being a healthy DNP for the Heat's last five games (including Sunday's loss).

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Won't return Sunday
Jaquez has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Pacers due to a right ankle sprain, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.
Jaquez rolled his right ankle late in the third quarter after stepping on T.J. McConnell, and he will not return for the fourth quarter. Given the Heat play Monday against the 76ers, it seems unlikely Jaquez will be able to play in the second leg of the back-to-back. Josh Richardson, Duncan Robinson and Nikola Jovic are candidates to see more minutes off the bench with Jaquez sidelined.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Playing through hip tightness
Jaquez is listed as available for Sunday's game versus the Pacers despite dealing with right hip flexor tightness, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Jaquez appears to have tweaked his hip flexor against Indiana on Friday but won't miss Sunday's contest. Over his last five appearances, the second-year forward is averaging 9.4 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.0 steals in 23.6 minutes.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Efficient in defeat
Jaquez logged 14 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and two steals across 25 minutes during Tuesday's 123-121 overtime loss to the Pistons.
The 23-year-old led the bench in scoring alongside Duncan Robinson, and Jaquez was efficient while stuffing the stat sheet. The forward could see an uptick in minutes if Nikola Jovic (nose) misses additional time, though he will have to compete for the starting spot with Robinson. Through seven regular-season outings, Jaquez has averaged 9.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.0 steals while shooting 46.7 percent from beyond the arc.
