Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Moving back to bench Wednesday

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.
Jaquez missed Miami's previous outing due to a sprained right ankle, but imaging revealed that he has avoided a serious injury. While the second-year forward's absence from practice is a bad sign for his availability against Dallas on Sunday, he still has a few more days to recover in time.

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.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Low minutes in return
Jaquez (illness) played 16 minutes off the bench and finished with seven points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block in Sunday's 95-94 win over the Timberwolves.
Making his return from a three-game absence due to an illness, Jaquez's minutes were held in check even though the Heat were without starting small forward Jimmy Butler (ankle). The Heat are seemingly viewing Butler as day-to-day, and so long as Butler avoids an extended absence, Jaquez may not see his playing time increase dramatically in the games to come.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Good to go vs. Minnesota
Jaquez (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
Jaquez has missed the Heat's last three games due to an illness, but he will suit up Sunday after regaining his conditioning, though he will operate under a minute restriction, per Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel. Jaquez came off Miami's bench in the first five games of the regular season prior to his illness, during which he averaged 9.4 points, 7.6 rebounds and 2.4 assists over 25.2 minutes per game.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Questionable to play Sunday
Jaquez (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game against Minnesota, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
While the Heat have labelled Jaquez's injury as an illness, the second-year forward is working on his return to competition conditioning. He doesn't have a timetable for his return, and if he doesn't play Sunday, that will mark his fourth straight absence.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Remains sidelined
Jaquez (illness) will not play in Friday's game against the Nuggets, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.
Jaquez's absence will mark his third straight, as he looks to return from an illness. He participated at shootaround earlier in the day, which was a promising sign, but it looks like the Heat will hold him out one more game in order to get his conditioning back up to par. In Jaquez's absence, the likes of Duncan Robinson, Alec Burks and Haywood Highsmith could absorb his usual minutes.

Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Participates at shootaround Friday
Jaquez (conditioning), who is questionable for Friday's game against Denver, was an active participant during shootaround Friday morning, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.
Jaquez missed the club's last two games due to an illness, and he is questionable as the club tests his conditioning for a return to game action. However, the 23-year-old's participation at shootaround bodes well for his status. If Jaquez isn't able to return Friday, Duncan Robinson, Alec Burks and Haywood Highsmith are all candidates for an uptick in minutes.

Jaquez (conditioning) is questionable for Friday's game against the Nuggets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Jaquez missed the club's last two games due to an illness, though he is trending in the right direction as he will attempt to regain his conditioning before Friday. If the 23-year-old forward is not ready for a return to game action, Duncan Robinson, Alec Burks and Haywood Highsmith are all candidates for an increased role.
