Miami Heat News and Rumors Page 92 - NBA

Jaime Jaquez Jr. - Won't travel to Brooklyn Jaquez (groin) won't travel to Brooklyn for Monday's game against the Nets, Wes Goldberg of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Impact Jaquez sustained a left groin strain Sunday against the Hornets, and coach Erik Spoelstra said that the 22-year-old won't make the trip to Brooklyn ahead of Monday's matchup. However, Jaquez ll be considered day-to-day after Monday's game, and Spoelstra downplayed the severity of the injury following Sunday's contest. If Jimmy Butler (toe) remains out Monday, Caleb Martin, Duncan Robinson and Josh Richardson could see plenty of run for Miami.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. - Won't return Sunday Jaquez has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Hornets due to a left groin strain, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

Impact Jaquez was part of the starting lineup Sunday for the 11th time in the last 12 matchups, but he was ruled out for the remainder of the game shortly after halftime. He tallied 15 points (7-11 FG, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, two assists and a steal in 15 minutes before leaving the game, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be available Monday against the Nets.

Hornets Starting Five vs. Miami Heat A look at the first five on the floor for the Hornets.

JANUARY 14 • CHARLOTTEOBSERVER.COM

Haywood Highsmith - Returns to reserve role Highsmith isn't starting Sunday's game against the Hornets.

Impact Highsmith will return to a reserve role following back-to-back starts. However, he should still see increased playing time off the bench with Kevin Love (knee) unavailable. As a reserve (seven games), Highsmith has averaged 5.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.9 steals in 18.6 minutes per game.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Duncan Robinson - Back to bench Robinson isn't starting Sunday's game against Charlotte.

Impact With Tyler Herro (shoulder) and Kyle Lowry (hand) out, Robinson drew a start Friday, posting 23 points (9-19 FG) in 41 minutes during a 99-96 win over the Magic. However, Herro and Lowry will return to action Sunday, sending Robinson back to the bench. Robinson should still handle usage off the bench, as he's averaging 12.2 points and 3.4 assists over his last 11 appearances as a reserve.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Jimmy Butler - Officially out Sunday Butler (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Charlotte, Will Manso of Local 10 Miami reports.

Impact Butler will now have missed 11 of Miami's past 12 games, with the Heat scrapping to a 6-5 record over that span. Sunday will mark Caleb Martin's second game back from an ankle injury, so Miami's backcourt and wing rotation will be at full health with the exception of Butler.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Kyle Lowry - Cleared to play Lowry (hand) is available for Sunday's game against the Hornets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact As expected, Lowry has been upgraded from probable to available and will presumably return to the starting lineup following a two-game absence due to a left hand sprain. Over his last four appearances (all starts), Lowry has averaged 7.5 points, 3.5 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 22.3 minutes per game.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Kevin Love - Ruled out Love (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Hornets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Love has been downgraded from questionable to out and will miss his first game since Dec. 20. Haywood Highsmith, Nikola Jokic and Caleb Martin should all see slightly fewer minutes at power forward in Love's absence.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Tyler Herro - Good to go Sunday Herro (shoulder) is available for Sunday's game against the Hornets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Herro will return to action following a one-game absence due to a shoulder injury. Kyle Lowry (hand) is also available, while Kevin Love (knee) and Jimmy Butler (toe) are out. Over his last 11 appearances, Herro has averaged 22.1 points, 5.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.3 steals in 34.5 minutes per game.

Kevin Love - Questionable for Sunday Love is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Hornets due to a knee injury, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Love is in danger of missing his first game since Dec. 20 due to a knee injury. If the veteran big man is ruled out, Nikola Jovic, Thomas Bryant and Orlando Robinson are candidates to receive extended minutes.

JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Tyler Herro - Questionable for Sunday Herro is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Hornets due to a shoulder injury, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Herro missed Friday's win over the Magic, and it sounds as if he might miss out again. If that's the case, then Duncan Robinson could be in line to make another start at shooting guard.

JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Kyle Lowry - Expected to play against Charlotte Lowry (hand) is probable for Sunday's game versus the Hornets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Lowry is expected to return to action Sunday after missing the previous two games with a left hand sprain. The veteran point guard is averaging 8.4 points, 3.6 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 24.4 minutes across his last five appearances.

JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Jimmy Butler - Doubtful against Hornets Butler (toe) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Hornets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Butler will likely sit out a seventh straight game, but previous reports have indicated that he could be back for Monday's contest against the Nets. Kyle Lowry (hand) is probable for Sunday, while Tyler Herro (shoulder) is questionable. It's likely that the Heat continue to rely heavily on Jaime Jaquez.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. - Strong showing Friday Jaquez finished Friday's 99-96 victory over Orlando with 19 points (8-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 37 minutes.

Impact Even though Jaquez has been trusted into a bigger role on offense due to the absence of Jimmy Butler (calf) and the team's overall lack of depth, the UCLA standout has managed to carve a role for the Heat and has settled quite well after being a start at the college level. He's averaging 15.8 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game since the start of January.

JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Duncan Robinson - Goes for 23 points Friday Robinson amassed 23 points (9-19 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal over 41 minutes during Friday's 99-96 victory over the Magic.

Impact Robinson drained four shots from beyond the arc and played a pivotal role on offense as the Heat tamed down the Magic in another edition of the Sunshine State rivalry. Robinson has been productive when deployed in first unit and is averaging 16.8 points, 3.0 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game while shooting 45.7 percent from deep in that role.

JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Bam Adebayo - Drains game-winning shot Adebayo amassed 21 points (8-17 FG, 5-6 FT), 11 rebounds, seven assists and one block across 39 minutes during Friday's 99-96 win over the Magic.

Impact Adebayo was everywhere for the City and posted a solid stat line across the board, but perhaps most importantly, he drained the game-winning shot in a surprisingly low-scoring contest. Adebayo has been outstanding for the Heat in recent weeks, and he's averaging 22.1 points, 11.9 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game over his last 10 appearances.
