    • Jaime Jaquez Jr. played minutes at power forward against Chicago. A host thinks he had about seven rebounds in the second half or fourth quarter. at 17:56
    • A host thinks Jaquez is second on the team in scoring, second in rebounding and third in assists, and efficient so far. Along with Kasparas Jakucionis and Tyler Herro, the host ranks him among the team's top three positives. at 15:23
    • A host expects contending teams to show interest in Tyler Herro and Jaime Jaquez Jr around February. The co-host calls the trade-deadline decision fascinating and would currently like both to stay. at 17:12

    Bucks are 0-2 under coach Taylor Jenkins but play hard and together. Jaquez and Herro have played well; the hosts say they lack the star power to close games.

  • Bluesky Jim Owczarski (@jimowczarski.bsky.social) · Report ·

    Jaime Jaquez Jr. spoke after Bucks practice: He said his mindset hasn't changed regarding an extension other than instead of taking it "day-by-day" he's going "hour-by-hour" at this point regarding a potential rookie scale extension with his new team.

  • Podcast Locked On Bucks · 3 points ·
    • Through three games Jaquez is the second-leading scorer at 20+ per game, shooting about 61% from the field and 56% on threes, and is first on the team in free-throw attempts. at 5:17
    • Host values Jaquez's grab-and-go play, his ability to start transition and get to the line, and his positional versatility. He calls Jaquez a perfectly fine defender, not an All-Defense type. at 6:24
    • Host analysis: the roster's biggest missing piece is a perimeter/wing defender who can guard threes and athletic fours. Ament has the most tools for that job. Host doubts that Kuzma (consistency), Ousmane Dieng or Jaquez (beaten by quick first steps) can fill it. at 15:13

    • Justin Garcia: The host's view: the team must treat this season as asset accumulation, which means showcasing Myles Turner, Tyler Herro and Jaime Jaquez Jr. at 22:55

    • Justin Garcia: The host thinks part of Rollins' struggle came from matchups: the Wizards put Trey Young on Jaquez, so Rollins drew tougher defenders. at 18:14
    • Justin Garcia: Jaime Jaquez started well: he attacked the Trey Young mismatch, scored the game's first three points and was efficient. at 19:44

    • Kasparas Jakucionis went 6-of-6 from the free-throw line. He and Jaime Jaquez Jr each attempted six free throws, which led the team. at 8:55
    • Jaime Jaquez Jr went 8 of 12 from the field and 5 of 6 from the line. His 7 rebounds led the Bucks. at 9:45
    • Washington started Trae Young on Jaime Jaquez Jr. Jaquez exploited it with a back-cut on the game's first possession, off a bounce pass from Kuzma. at 16:39
    • Frank says transition was not the problem. Jaquez leaked out and single-handedly outscored the Wizards in transition in the first half (about 12-2). The final transition score was 16-9 to the Bucks. at 14:39
    • Frank's view: the Bucks have to play fast on offense ("play fast or die") because they lack shot creation. Pairing Kuzma and Jaime Jaquez Jr is tough because opponents don't respect either forward's perimeter shooting. at 16:15

    • Camille Davis: Camille expects a Jaquez contract in the same range as Podziemski's, especially if his three-point shot is real. at 33:24
    • Justin Garcia: Justin rates Jaquez as probably a 7th–9th man in a rotation who can fill in as a replacement-level starter, not a starting-level player. He compares him to Podziemski and Donte DiVincenzo. at 33:50
    • Justin Garcia: Justin's valuation for players like Jaquez: the mid-level (about $16M) at most, ideally around $13–14M. at 34:41
