Phoenix faces Miami on 3-game win streak

Phoenix will attempt to keep its three-game win streak alive when the Suns take on Miami

Puts up 16 points in return Jaquez (illness) registered 16 points (6-12 FG, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one steal across 25 minutes Saturday in the Heat's 123-99 loss to the Pacers.

Impact Jaquez was back in action after he had missed the Heat's previous two games due to a sprained right ankle before he was listed on the injury report with a stomach illness prior to Saturday's contest. The third-year forward was able to produce well in his sixth-man role, but he may not have a pathway to seeing much of an uptick in minutes now that the Heat are at full strength following Tyler Herro's recent return from a right big toe contusion. Jaquez still looks to be a roster-worthy option in most fantasy leagues, though his upside will be more limited while the Heat have all their key contributors available.

Heat Injury Report: Update on Tyler Herro, Jaime Jaquez Jr. | Sporting News Miami received mixed injury news ahead of Tuesday night's game.

JANUARY 6 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Confirmed out for Tuesday Jaquez (ankle) will not play Tuesday against Minnesota.

Impact This one is a bit strange, as Jaquez has now been ruled out for a second time for this contest -- the Heat upgraded him to questionable late Monday night. Presumably, this simply means he's day-to-day with a chance to return Thursday against Chicago. Nikola Jovic and Pelle Larsson could see increased run with Jaquez out of the mix Tuesday.

JANUARY 6 • ROTOWIRE

Upgraded to questionable Jaquez (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves.

Impact Jaquez was initially ruled out for Tuesday's game, though it appears there's a chance he could return to action after a one-game absence due to a right ankle sprain he sustained in a loss to Minnesota on Saturday. Entering Saturday's contest, the UCLA product had averaged 20.8 points, 4.8 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 30.2 minutes per tilt in his last five games. If Jaquez is ultimately ruled out, Pelle Larsson and Dru Smith are candidates for increased minutes.

Out with ankle sprain Jaquez (ankle) is out for Tuesday's game against Minnesota.

Impact A right ankle sprain is keeping Jaquez out for a second straight outing. As a result, Pelle Larsson and Nikola Jovic (groin) should continue to see meaningful run for the Heat on the wing.

Unlikely to face Pelicans Jaquez (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against New Orleans.

Impact Jaquez sprained his right ankle in the second quarter of Saturday's game and did not return. He's slated to miss Sunday's contest due to the issue as well. If he sits, Pelle Larsson (ankle) and Dru Smith could see a bump in playing time.

Won't return Saturday Jaquez won't return to Saturday's game against the Timberwolves due to a sprained right ankle.

Impact Jaquez sustained the sprained ankle when he stepped on an opposing player's foot in the second quarter. The 24-year-old swingman was initially deemed probable to return, though he was ruled out for the remainder of the game shortly thereafter. He'll finish with six points (3-5 FG), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 10 minutes. His next opportunity to play will come Sunday against New Orleans, and if Jaquez is forced to miss time, Dru Smith and Simone Fontecchio are candidates to see increased playing time off the bench.
