Jaquez (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
After missing Monday's win against the Magic, Jaquez will shake off his probable tag and is expected to be back in the rotation. With Jimmy Butler suspended through the trade deadline, Jaquez could see plenty of shot attempts with the second unit in the short term.

Jaquez (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Magic, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez is dealing with a stomach bug, which is severe enough for him to be held out of Monday's contest. His next chance to play will be Wednesday against the Cavaliers. With Jaquez out and Jimmy Butler suspended indefinitely, Pelle Larsson and Nikola Jovic should both see a significant increase in playing time.

Jaquez is questionable for Monday's game versus the Magic due to an illness, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez was a late addition to the injury report, and he wasn't present at the morning shootaround, which doesn't bode well for his status. Fortunately for Miami, Jimmy Butler is expected to return from his two-game suspension Monday.

Jaquez produced eight points (3-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one block over 25 minutes during Thursday's 125-96 loss to Milwaukee.
EDGE Analysis
Even with Jimmy Butler suspended, Jaquez still wasn't able to rejoin Miami's starting lineup in favor of rookie second-rounder Pelle Larsson on Thursday. Over his last four outings, Jaquez has averaged 9.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.8 three-pointers in 24.7 minutes. With the Heat actively shopping Butler ahead of the Feb. 6 trade deadline, the 2023 first-rounder could end up making additional starts for the team down the stretch of the season despite his current reserve role.

Jaquez won't start Friday against the Nuggets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.
EDGE Analysis
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. Jaquez is expected to remain in the starting lineup as long as Jimmy Butler (suspension) remains out. The former UCLA standout averaged 15.0 points, 6.9 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game across seven starts this season.

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.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Jaquez will enter the starting lineup in Monday's game against the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
The 23-year-old will supplant Nikola Jovic in the starting five on Monday. Jaquez has started in four outings for the Heat this season, during which he has averaged 12.8 points, 6.0 rebounds, 2.8 steals and 2.0 assists across 27.8 minutes per contest.

EDGE Analysis
Jaquez has started in each of Miami's last three games and has averaged 10.7 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 2.7 steals over 25.0 minutes per game over that span. The Heat will go with a starting lineup of Terry Rozier, Tyler Herro, Haywood Highsmith, Kevin Love and Bam Adebayo for Sunday's contest.
