Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro was in trade rumors for just about the entire offseason as the Heat were looking to acquire former Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard.
According to Wes Goldberg of The Ringer, Herro spoke to Udonis Halsem, his former teammate on the Heat, nearly every day as rumors made the rounds.
Miami will need Herro to improve a decent amount if it wants any chance at making some noise this season. With Lillard, the Bucks are arguably the favorites to win it all. The Boston Celtics also got significantly better by acquiring Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday.
Thomas Bryant and Josh Richardson are two solid veteran additions, but the Heat didn’t make any groundbreaking moves. Only time will tell if they have enough to be among the best of the best.
