"Just going back and watching some film," Jaquez told Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald. "I think that's a big one. Just remembering what it was that put me on the floor, what it was that got me to this position. Just kind of leaning into my strengths, as well as working on things that I need to work on like shooting and defense. And just bringing it all together as a whole, I think is one of the biggest things for me this offseason." As a versatile player, Jaquez Jr. can help fantasy teams in multiple ways, but he needs to be on the floor to make a difference.
