Miami Heat forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. is one of three finalists for NBA Sixth Man of the Year. This makes him the only Heat player to be named a finalist for any of the NBA's major awards. The other two finalists are Denver Nuggets wing Tim Hardaway Jr. and San Antonio Spurs wing Keldon Johnson. Jaquez, who led all NBA reserves this past season in points, field goals, 20-point games, points in the paint, fast-break points and points off turnovers, is potentially the second winner of the sixth-man honor in the Heat's 38 seasons. The announcement also means that Heat center Bam Adebayo will not be named among the three finalists.
