Jaquez is a proud Mexican-American — Mexican through his father, Norwegian through his mother — who represented Mexico at the 2019 Pan American Games and has become one of the NBA's most prominent players of Mexican heritage, a genuine marketing and cultural figure. His toughness earned the nickname 'Juan Wick,' a play on the John Wick character, and his loyalty showed when he stayed at UCLA through a coaching change. His sister plays college basketball and his brother college football.
His on-court identity is physical, high-IQ two-way play — a crafty interior scorer and rebounder who defends multiple positions and makes the right pass, rather than a high-volume shooter. His swing skill is perimeter shooting, but his floor of defense, rebounding, and efficient inside scoring makes him a valuable connective wing on a contender.
