"The Miami Heat were down five players in both of their first two preseason games. Tyler Herro continues to recover from his foot issue, while Terry Rozier, Davion Mitchell, Pelle Larsson, and Kasparas Jakucionis sat out with issues that are considered day-to-day. The good news for the Heat is that while the main starters were in, the team showed promising signs in both games."
"In the first game, he wound up playing over 20 minutes, had just six points off 2-7 shooting, and was -13 on the night in +/-. In game two, Jaquez finished with nine points, four rebounds, and three assists. Obviously, once Miami is healthy, JJJ is not going to be a starter, but through these first two preseason games, we are reminded of the precarious setup of Miami's roster when it comes to guards."
The Miami Heat entered preseason missing five players, including Tyler Herro, Terry Rozier, Davion Mitchell, Pelle Larsson, and Kasparas Jakucionis, with the latter four listed day-to-day. While main starters showed promising signs in both preseason games, depth issues forced Jaime Jaquez Jr. into substantial minutes alongside Nikola Jovic and Bam Adebayo. Jaquez produced modest totals—six points and -13 in game one, nine points, four rebounds and three assists in game two—highlighting concerns about perimeter shooting and finishing at the rim. Norman Powell and Davion Mitchell offer experience, but reliable guard options beyond Herro remain limited.
