Jaime Jaquez Jr. scored 25 points with five rebounds, three assists, two steals, two threes and one turnover on 7-16 shooting and 9-9 from the line in 30 minutes off the bench on Wednesday, November 11, when Milwaukee lost to the Lakers 112-123.

The line delivered 40.5 fantasy points against 25.6 over his previous 10 games, and the 30 minutes and 16 field-goal attempts both exceeded his recent workload. Over those 10 games he averaged 14.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 0.6 steals, 0.1 blocks and 1.8 threes in 27.2 minutes a game. His 23.0 per cent usage and 58.4 per cent true shooting this season support steady scoring production, and the elevated shot volume on Wednesday suggests he can post bigger nights in the right matchup. He projects to 27.5 fantasy points a game in default points scoring.

Player by player

Jaime Jaquez Jr.

Jaquez has now played 27.8 minutes a game across 12 contests, posting 16.1 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.8 assists. He has started every game this season and the offence runs through him at a 23.0 per cent usage rate. The 58.4 per cent true shooting mark keeps his efficiency strong, and he contributes across the stat sheet with steals (0.7 a game) and nearly two triples. His negative nine-category value (minus-2.51) reflects his limited defensive numbers, but the scoring and rebounding from the forward spot offer steady baseline production.

Milwaukee has one game left this week, on Wednesday on the second night of a back-to-back. The heavy minutes and 16 shot attempts in this outing signal that Jaquez can handle an expanded role when the opportunity presents itself. His 27.5 projected fantasy points in default scoring and consistent court time make him a reliable contributor in deeper formats. Managers in nine-category leagues should value his scoring and boards while understanding that steals and blocks will not come often.

What to do

• Keep Jaquez rostered in 12-team leagues and deeper for his scoring, rebounding and steady minutes.

• Start him in points leagues where his 27.5 projected fantasy points offer reliable production.

• Monitor his shot attempts and minutes on Wednesday, the second night of a back-to-back, to see if the expanded role holds.
