Available to play Saturday Jaquez (ankle) will be available to play Saturday against the Trail Blazers, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Jaquez limped off the floor during the closing minute of Friday's game after tweaking his ankle, but he'll power through it and get out there for Saturday's matchup with the Trail Blazers. Jaquez has been in a groove over the past two, scoring in double figures while dishing out the dimes, and he's shot 17-29 from the field over the hot stretch.

Questionable Saturday Jaquez (ankle) is questionable to play in Saturday's game against the Cavaliers.

Impact Jaquez is dealing with an ankle injury, which could keep him on the sideline for the first time this season. If he's ruled out, the team will likely turn to Dru Smith and Kasparas Jakucionis off the bench.

Exits game with ankle sprain Jaquez chipped in 18 points (8-15 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, nine assists and two blocks over 33 minutes during Friday's 126-108 win over the Hornets.

Impact This was arguably Jaquez's best performance of the season, but unfortunately, he tweaked his left ankle during the closing minute of regulation and limped his way to the locker room. He'll be re-evaluated ahead of Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers, but there's a chance both he and Norman Powell (ankle) could be missing in action after both suffered ankle sprains. That would create a ton of opportunity for Nikola Jovic, particularly if Bam Adebayo (foot) is out again.

Leads bench with 21 points Jaquez recorded 21 points (9-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal over 26 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 122-112 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact It's the third time in the last five games Jaquez has topped 20 points, although he managed just six points in each of the other two contests. The third-year forward is emerging as the leader of Miami's second unit, averaging 17.4 points, 6.3 boards, 4.3 assists and 0.9 steals in 29.1 minutes a contest to kick off the season.

Strikes for season-high 31 in loss Jaquez totaled 31 points (11-16 FG, 9-13 FT), eight rebounds and four assists in 35 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 130-120 loss to the Lakers.

Impact The third-year forward led all scorers on the night as he set a new personal best in points on the young season. Jaquez is quickly putting his sophomore struggles behind him, and through six games as the leader of the Heat's second unit he's averaging 18.7 points, 6.8 boards and 4.5 assists in 30.2 minutes a contest while shooting a stunning 63.8 percent from the floor.

Heat reserve has shown massive improvement in early season Jaime Jaquez Jr. wasn't expected to do any of this for the Miami Heat this season.

OCTOBER 31, 2025 • THESTATE.COM

Regresses in reserve role Jaquez provided six points (2-8 FG, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and six assists over 34 minutes during Thursday's 107-101 loss to the Spurs.

Impact Although Jaquez turned in decent secondary totals, he finished with his first single-digit scoring total of the season in the defeat. He regressed despite recording his highest minute total of the season, indicating that his floor might not be as high as originally thought. He's been a fantasy darling in winning DFS lineups this season, and a larger sample size is needed from the UCLA product before he's off the board completely.
