Jaquez has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Hornets due to a left groin strain, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez was part of the starting lineup Sunday for the 11th time in the last 12 matchups, but he was ruled out for the remainder of the game shortly after halftime. He tallied 15 points (7-11 FG, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, two assists and a steal in 15 minutes before leaving the game, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be available Monday against the Nets.

Jaquez finished Friday's 99-96 victory over Orlando with 19 points (8-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 37 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Even though Jaquez has been trusted into a bigger role on offense due to the absence of Jimmy Butler (calf) and the team's overall lack of depth, the UCLA standout has managed to carve a role for the Heat and has settled quite well after being a start at the college level. He's averaging 15.8 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game since the start of January.

Jaquez totaled 21 points (6-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 6-9 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 34 minutes during Wednesday's 128-120 loss to the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez has looked comfortable in a starting role, and the absence of Jimmy Butler (foot) will mean the rookie should continue having a strong upside in the foreseeable future. The former UCLA standout has started in all but one of his last 10 outings, a span in which he's putting up 16.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.3 steals per contest.

Jaquez produced 14 points (5-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal over 39 minutes during Monday's 120-113 victory over the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez has started in eight of Miami's last nine games due to Jimmy Butler's recent injuries, but the former UCLA standout has been nothing short of outstanding in a more significant role. One of the most productive rookies thus far, Jaquez has averaged 14.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.4 steals per game in his 12 starts this season.

Jaquez closed with 10 points (5-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and two steals over 35 minutes during Friday's 113-97 loss to Phoenix.
EDGE Analysis
The Heat struggled badly on offense and didn't even reach the 100-point mark, and while Jaquez's numbers didn't stand out, he was efficient and missed just two of his seven attempts from the field. Jaquez has done a good job when called upon for starting duty, and he should remain in that role if Jimmy Butler (foot) remains unavailable against the Rockets on Monday.

EDGE Analysis
Jaquez hails from the Los Angeles area, and he was able to enjoy a starting role in his homecoming with Jimmy Butler (foot) sidelined. The rookie has logged five starts over the past six games, averaging 16.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2,0 assists and 1.5 steals over the span.

Jaquez (illness) will play Saturday against Utah, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez was initially added to the injury report due to an illness, but it won't force him to miss Saturday's action. The rookie is averaging 17.0 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.4 steals over his last five contests, though it's unclear if he'll make a fifth straight start with Jimmy Butler (calf) still listed as questionable.

Jaquez is questionable for Saturday's game against the Jazz due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez hasn't yet missed a game this season, but that streak is in jeopardy due to an illness. The Heat have a long injury report, so at the moment, it's unclear what their rotation will look like versus Utah.
