Jaquez was given a questionable tag ahead of Sunday’s game against the Cavaliers because of knee and ankle issues, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
This is the first time Jaquez has appeared on Miami’s injury report with these specific injuries. His status will likely depend on how he feels after testing things out in pregame warmups. The rookie averaged 9.9 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 0.9 steals, 0.3 blocks and 0.8 triples in 27.9 minutes in March. If he ultimately doesn’t get the nod, Haywood Highsmith and Nikola Jovic could see their minutes increased.
