Heat guard Jaime Jaquez Jr. will not travel for Miami's two-game road trip that starts Monday at Brooklyn after departing early in the second quarter Sunday because of a groin strain.

Jaquez, who has played in every game of his rookie season, scored all 15 of his points in the first quarter and shot 7-of-11 from the floor before exiting.

The Heat went on to beat the Charlotte Hornets 104-87.

Jaquez sustained a similar injury before the season started, but he doesn't think this one is as serious.
