Heat guard Tyler Herro wanted to remind fans that he’s the rare player who steps his game up when the lights are at their brightest.
Much of the 2023 offseason for the Miami Heat was spent on thinking about a trade for Damian Lillard. After all, adding Lillard to a team that recently just made the NBA Finals with a core of Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo could have done wonders for their odds of getting over the hump and winning a championship. But now, with the dust having settled and with Lillard now a member of the Milwaukee Bucks franchise, the Heat will have to make do with the pieces they currently have on the roster.
Last year I felt like I had that [opportunity] then obviously I hurt my hand. That was really heartbreaking for me because I was going to have a big playoffs and then that happened,” Herro added.
Still with the Heat despite his involvement in Damian Lillard trade talks, Tyler Herro may be in line for a big season, especially with the Heat backcourt being razor thin in the aftermath of Max Strus’ and Gabe Vincent’s departures, as well as Kyle Lowry’s continued battle against Father Time. And it looks like he’ll be ready to go especially once the games start to truly matter.
