• Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Coming off bench for Play-In

  10D ago • By RotoWire

  Jaquez isn't part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Jaquez will return to his regular reserve role Wednesday after nabbing a spot start in the Heat's regular-season finale. In 66 games this season, Jaquez averaged 8.6 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.5 assists across 20.7 minutes.

• Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Erupts for career-high 41

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Jaquez recorded 41 points (17-25 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 10 rebounds and seven assists in 41 minutes during Sunday's 119-118 loss to Washington. With Tyler Herro, Bam Adebayo and other key Heat players resting ahead of the Play-In Tournament, Jaquez stepped up with a career-best scoring effort in a losing cause. However, the second-year wing hadn't scored more than 14 points or attempted more than 10 field goals in a game since Jan. 9, so Sunday's massive volume isn't likely to be repeated in the postseason, even if he retains a significant role in Miami's rotation.

  Jaquez registered 11 points (5-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists and one steal across 14 minutes during Friday's 153-104 victory over New Orleans. Jaquez has received inconsistent playing time recently for the Heat but logged 14 minutes during Friday's blowout victory. The second-year forward capitalized on this playing time by scoring efficiently and recording just his fourth outing of the season with at least five rebounds and five assists.

• Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Nears double-double in win

  25D ago • By RotoWire

  Jaquez amassed 14 points (6-9 FG, 2-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists and three steals in 24 minutes during Monday's 120-94 victory over the Wizards. Jaquez bounced back from playing limited minutes over his last three games with a strong performance against Washington. The second-year big man has now scored 14 points or more nine times for Miami, but only four times off the bench like he did Monday. Jaquez could see increased playing time going forward if Andrew Wiggins (hamstring) and Duncan Robinson (back) remain sidelined.
