Jaquez amassed 17 points (8-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt), five rebounds and one assist over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 111-105 victory over the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez was Miami's fourth-leading scorer with efficient production in a well-balanced offensive attack Tuesday. He's rapidly becoming an entrusted part of the rotation, logging at least 32 minutes in three straight games. Jaquez is seventh among all rookies in win shares and appears poised to carve out a quality NBA career.

Jaquez recorded 11 points (4-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, three assists, three steals and one block across 32 minutes in Sunday's 118-113 win over the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
With Jimmy Butler (personal) making his return from a one-game absence, Jaquez moved to the bench and saw his usage drop from 23.9 percent in Saturday's win over the Hawks to 16.3 percent Sunday. However, due to Kyle Lowry (rest) getting the night off and Tyler Herro (ankle) and Caleb Martin (knee) remaining out, Jaquez's playing time remained fairly stable from the game before, and he was able to make up for the downturn in offense by ratcheting up his defensive production. Lowry should be back in action Tuesday in Charlotte, and though Jaquez could end up pushing below 30 minutes as a result, he should at least have a path to a consistent 20-to-25-minute role while the returns of Herro and Martin appear to be further off.

Jaquez registered 20 points (8-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal over 38 minutes during Saturday's 117-109 win over the Hawks.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez moved into the starting lineup with Tyler Herro (ankle) and Jimmy Butler (personal) inactive, and he made the most of the opportunity by delivering the best scoring output of his young NBA career -- and by a wide margin. Jaquez has been trending in the right direction of late, scoring in double digits in each of his last two games while putting up at least nine points in four straight.

Jaquez isn't starting Monday's game against the Bucks, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez saw an opportunity to start in Miami's previous contest due to multiple injuries in the frontcourt, but he'll return to his usual bench role Monday evening. Jimmy Butler will slot in as the starting small forward, joined by Kevin Love at power forward and Thomas Bryant at center.

Jaquez is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Minnesota, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Heat will be thin in the frontcourt, so the rookie out of UCLA will make the first NBA start of his career. Jaquez has logged 27 total minutes off the bench in Miami's first two games, but he should be in line for a more prominent role in this game.

Jaquez (groin) is available for Friday's game against the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
No surprise here, as Jaquez had a probable designation prior to the game. Barring any setbacks, look for him to be available to provide depth at forward when needed.
