Jaime Jaquez Jr. Returns to L.A.

Amy hakz Jr you know we talked so much about his production we’re going to talk in a moment about the great time he’s having out in La seeing family friends and and alumni from UCLA but whether he’s starting off the bench he’s been productive but in particular he’s gone

Into the starting lineup which I assume as a rookie isn’t easy to just seamlessly work your way in and produce but he’s done that it’s absolutely incredible when you look at the numbers in terms of usually when you get more minutes and more opportuni sometimes they drop in terms of efficiency and by

The way he’s starting alongside bam and Tyler and all that so you’d expect maybe his for attempts to drop so therefore his points would drop no they’ve actually increased he’s averaging 38 minutes over the last five games he’s taking an average of 13 shots well in

The season he takes 10 shots it’s going to be really interesting though when you look last year at UCLA he played 37 games average 33 minutes per game so he’s very close right now 33 games with the Heat this season so far colge season B to a he’s played a college season and

Half the NBA season but I mean even the last game against the click Clippers I mean his biggest Advantage I mean his foot weight works great his skill set’s great but he doesn’t know how to go half speed right and then that’s where he’s been so successful look at these numbers

And look at who they yeah I mean this is incredible t look brought to local South Florida turo dealers let’s let’s get you through these stats so you can understand highest field goal percentage by a rookie in heat history to average at least 10 points a game and where Hae

Is as Amy mentioned a little over 30 Games look at that list when you got Dwayne Wade further down the list Michael Beasley who was a elite scorer coming out of college and sh Grant long and Harold mutt right at the top is K Hawkins J right now there are two rys in

This league that are averaging in double digits and shooting over 50% pime and Chad hogm so it’s it’s time will it’s time to start having that conversation that nobody wants to have because he deserves it his consistency his consistency has been off the charts abely yeah we know in the Eastern

Conference he’s likely going to win the award again for a rookie of the month he certainly has put up numbers too but you know there’s a storyline too as he went back to UCLA and that’s the the ability to give back to the community he grew up

In and the people that love him there so much and Jason Jackson has more on the special 48 hours for will thank you very much as we all know this is a very special trip to Southern California for heat rookie haime hakz Jr he grew up in this town

Played his high school Ball starring in this town of course grew up being a Lakers fan all due respect to the Clippers tonight a very different Dynamic and of course starring at UCLA this entire New Year trip to Southern California is super awesome for him and so he extends that blessing to others

The hakz family scholarship handed out uh just last night three different scholarships young individuals who now will have a better way as they head to Higher Learning with some extra cash in their pocket something that Hae knows is super important I’m coming from a family of Educators teachers um we understand the

Importance of what education can do for a person not only a person but a family to um allow it’s to you know teach a man how to fish and a CH for a lifetime I think that’s the same way with education just to be able to you know have a

Foundation like this to support people that may have the skills but may not have the funds to be able to go um to you know the number one University in in the country so just just to be able to have that platform to be able to bring

Attention uh to what we’re doing here is I think very very important very special to try to you know give kids a chance um when you know all odds are against them so I think that’s why it’s very important second gear that the hogz has have given out that particular awesome

Gift and how about this gift sometimes you give sometimes you receive this is the replica of the John Wooden sweater that he wore in the 60s and70s it’s the John Wooden alumni jacket given to players when they’re done in the program I might has his and he’s happy about it

Uh it’s really special um they’ve been having those jackets I always wanted one I told Doug uh when they made him to get me one he said once you graduate we’ll see what we can do and so you know a year later after after I’m done with

School I finally get to get that jacket and uh and who knows I’ll be sporting it tonight he wasn’t kidding strolling in crypto.com Arena representing the program the story coach his four years starring in that program now trying to get a W in this building on this

Particular trip of course he had that signature moment against the Lakers and LeBron ripping that ball away in the win at home but now on the road and in need of a win to make this trip tidy Hae and friends all looking for some more take

It let’s say in this particular part of the trip let’s head back to South Florida
