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.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Jaquez (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Jaquez (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game against Minnesota, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Jaquez (illness) will not play in Friday's game against the Nuggets, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
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 his absence, the likes of Duncan Robinson, Alec Burks and Haywood Highsmith could absorb his usual minutes.

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.
EDGE Analysis
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.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Jaquez (illness) will not play Wednesday against the Suns.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez is dealing with a stomach illness and will miss his second straight contest. His next chance to play will be Friday against the Nuggets. Duncan Robinson, Alec Burks, Josh Richardson and Pelle Larsson are candidates to see increased run in the meantime.

Jaquez (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Kings, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez was a late addition to the injury report due to a stomach illness and will ultimately miss his first game of the season. He's averaged 25.2 minutes per game off the bench over his first five appearances. In Jaquez's absence, Kevin Love, who's cleared to make his season debut after missing time due to personal reasons, could enter the rotation, or Jaquez's missing minutes could be dished out to a few players, including Duncan Robinson, Alec Burks, Josh Richardson and rookie Pelle Larsson.

Jaquez is questionable for Monday's game against the Kings with a stomach illness.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez was a very late addition to Miami's injury report which isn't a good sign. If he's unable to give it a go Monday, the Heat could turn to Duncan Robinson, Alec Burks and Josh Richardson to pick up the slack.

Jaquez ended Saturday's 118-98 victory over Washington with eight points (4-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt), 10 rebounds and one assist in 25 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Jaquez was the Heat's second-leading rebounder Saturday behind Bam Adebayo (14). Jaquez has seen consistent playing time off Miami's bench, and he should continue to provide some decent, all-around fantasy value while playing a complimentary role alongside Adebayo, Jimmy Butler and Tyler Herro.
