Jaime Jaquez Jr. of the Miami Heat Talks About Taking Part in the NBPA Brotherhood Deli.
Forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. of the Miami Heat is getting ready to play in the NBA Summer League, but not before participating in the NBPA Brotherhood Deli. Fans get the chance to meet some of their favorite players, shop for exclusive gear drops, and eat meals inspired by the players’ favorite deli items at the Brotherhood Deli, which is sponsored by Chase Freedom. This year, Jaquez and guard Scoot Henderson of the Portland Trail Blazers joined in celebration of the start of Summer League in Las Vegas.
“Yes, I am present. I had the opportunity to meet and greet with fans, sign items for them, and take some pictures. “Everyone was really cool,” Jaquez said to Anthony Pasciolla of Miami Heat On SI. “After that, we discussed the deli and some of my favorite items to eat there. Despite the fact that I’m from California, there aren’t as many delis there as there are in New York, and this one is based there, but we were able to find some similarities.”
As Jaquez indicated, the Brotherhood Deli takes its cues from a traditional New York bodega. According to numerous rumors, the 23-year-old forward is anticipated to participate in the Heat’s first few Summer League games. In his debut season, he established himself as a vital member of their rotation, therefore supporters can probably expect to see him play a restricted role. This will present an opportunity for rookie Kel’el Ware and other players to succeed against other young players in the league. The Boston Celtics will be the Heat’s first Summer League opponent on Saturday.
