Jaime Jaquez Jr. (ankle) coming off Heat's bench on Friday
Miami Heat forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. will play with the second unit Friday in the team's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.
What It Means:
Jimmy Butler is making his return to the court after a one-game absence due to an illness. He'll immediately start, sending Jaquez - who himself is dealing with left ankle discomfort - to a role off the bench.
Our models project Jaquez for 11.5 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 21.9 FanDuel points across 28.0 minutes of action.
