2NL - Missed Value

Blinds: $0.01/$0.02 (5 Players) BB: $3.22
UTG: $2.28 (Hero)
CO: $2.00
BN: $3.26
SB: $2.13
Preflop ($0.03) Hero is UTG with Q J
Hero raises to $0.06, CO folds, BN calls $0.06, SB calls $0.05, BB calls $0.04
Loose open UTG. I was able to open up my range a little bit as I had both a tight BTN and BB in my UTG position, so I'm only uncomfortable if CO calls, and even then I don't think I'm in a terrible spot. Unfortunately, we hit the flop 4way.
Flop ($0.24) 8 J 7
SB checks, BB bets $0.13, Hero calls $0.13, BN folds, SB calls $0.13
One of the tighter players leads out of position, not entirely pleased but I have TP decent Kicker so I think a call is okay here. Could raise but I'm not sure how many big hands are in BBs donking range (any help with this one?). At this point I had him for a middle pair or a draw. 99, K8, K9, KT, Q9, QT, 65. SB calls, I give him a bit of a tighter range after my call as it seems pretty likely that someone has a J.
Turn ($0.63) 8 J 7 5
SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks
River ($0.63) 8 J 7 5 3
SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks
This is where I'm not sure if I made a mistake. I checked behind on the turn because I figured when BB checks and I take a stab after he leads flop then it gives him a great spot to x/r and I'd like to stay out of that spot. I checked behind because I couldn't think of any worse hands calling. I was comfortable as I had a large amount of drawing hands in their ranges but they would all likely fold to any bet (except maybe a station with KT). I figured if I got a call then I was probably losing to SBs KJ.
