Jaime Jaquez Jr. Expected To Play Friday
8 months agoMiami Heat forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. (ankle) is listed as probable for their matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday. The rookie is dealing with some discomfort in his left ankle, but it has only caused him to miss one game over the last few months. In their most recent game, Jaquez finished with 12 points, two rebounds, one assist, and two turnovers across 26 minutes of playing time. His role may not be as big in this game since Jimmy Butler (illness) will be back in the lineup, but someone has to account for the offense missing from Tyler Herro (foot). Jaquez can still serve as a solid DFS option against a weaker opponent.
