Heat rookie Jaime Jaquez Jr. on his LA homecoming, bounce-back win over Lakers | NBA on ESPN 

There's our guy who makes every heat game exciting💪🏀🔥

Understand what Pat was doing holding on to this kid. He's versatile, got good size, right attitude and most of all - Young. Doesnt need to be an All Star, you know he's a great piece to have on the team. Definitely will be popular also with them Latinos in Miami.

Future superstar!!!

how did the lakers not draft this guy …. lmao he’s from LA and played off UCLA HE PROLLY TOOK THIS SO PERSONAL

Why did we pick Jalen Hood Schifino over JJJ? This guy is a phenomenal rookie and a perennial all star

Way to go Kylo!

🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽 Les goooooooo

The Miami Heat selected Jaime Jaquez with the #18 overall pick of the 2023 NBA Draft, because the Los Angeles Lakers, with the 17th overall pick, selected Jalen Hood-Schifino. Thanks Lakers.

Hate to say it.. he might be their franchise player next

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 HeatNation

Heat just know how to draft and develops players they have a really good formula

He looks like from the 3 musketeers 😅

Jaquez 805 in da building

The future 💪🏽 #mexican power

Dude is a beast!

Absolutely schooled Ledone.

Jovic looked good too

JJJ 🔥

The " Mexican cowboy" my new favorite player.

Fakers packed it in after winning that YMCA tournament.

He is a good for the heat

Very good steady player. Him and Houston Rockets Center Alperen Şengün are budding NBA stars.

Did Jalen Hood Schifino play ??? They picked him over this guy

The young goat JJJ 🐐🐐🐐

deym! Jack Marston is ballin' 🔥

🐐

Vamos Jaquez!!!

Jorge Sedano was probably chanting Let’s Go Heat during the game 😂

Wasn't this guy killed in Star Wars?

ROTY candidate 🔥

He’s from Ventura County… not LA county, but it’s next door & so at the end of the day it is home. He representing the 805!

When Kylo Ren decided to put down the mask/helmet to play basketball.

Listen to his voice and think about what Nate Diaz sounds like, that’s that southern Cali accent. This dudes a baller though!

💪

LeWalkOut did it again

🇲🇽🇲🇽

How many he scored

LETS GO UCLA

🇲🇽

The lakers can’t beat any winning team. I appreciate everything LBJ has done in his career but he’s not really the player LA needs him to be rn. I think he’s the 2nd greatest player ever after MJ but age seems to be catching up with him. Everyone was joking about AD’s frequent injuries but now AD has playing solid. look at his stats the last few games. We usually look at LBJ’s stats and call out his teammates but now AD’s been playing like a superstar but Bron been playing like he ain’t. I’m not a hater but I think LA needs to consider starting LBJ from the Bench, let him run that 2nd unit and then keep him in if the game is close, the team may benefit.

Zlatan meets John Wick=

Bro looks like Kyle Ren

Jamie hooping like Penguinz0 if he was a foot taller! 😂

He can hoop

To think we could have drated him instead of "Too cool for school" Jalen Hood Schifino. Stiff as a block, Game as good as 1 ply toilet paper.

TRIPPLEJ is the real deal

can't believe JJJ is a rookie, if you're a casual you'll literally thought he's a vet😭😭

Jesús saves

and we had the chance to draft him......

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

He was in their own backyard, why didn't lakers draft Jaime?

Triple J! JJJ

I’m sorry l.a didnt draft you. Kobe would be disappointed.

Horrible scouting staff L

Thank you Lakers!! For stealing Hood-Schifino one pick before us, so we take the guy that many Lakers fans wanted LMAO

Steal of the draft!!better than wemby, chet and ben simmons 😅

Glad he wasn't drafted by the Lakers. Lakers are a bunch of a holes. specially LeBron.

LeGofundMe James already trying to get new players to carry his 39 year old @SS

Good for him got his 16 seconds of fame

Jersey is hideous they really try to talk heat culture into existence 😂😂😂

This was a really weird interview. Just how it was so boring and politically correct and how he is so not photogenic. You realize that life doesn’t have to be boring right?
