Rise to superstardom from Tyler Herro still gives Heat their best chance to compete
"At the age of 25, he is still a few years away from his prime. However, career growth in Miami has been undeniable. In the 2021-22 campaign, he secured the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year award. He dealt with some unfortunate injury luck in the two seasons afterward, but he played in a career-high 77 games last season. Putting together his first fully healthy year paid instant dividends."
"As a natural combo guard, Herro is a proven elite and clutch three-level scorer. He is capable of putting the ball in the basket anywhere on the court. Last year, he saw his efficiency numbers increase after altering his shot diet to feature mainly 3-point attempts and rim drives. That offensive adjustment led to the best year of his career. The seven-year veteran posted nearly 24 points, 5.5 assists and 5.2 rebounds on 47/38/88 shooting splits."
Tyler Herro had offseason ankle surgery expected to sideline him for about the first 15 games, yet he remains arguably Miami's top talent and will resume a heavy offensive role when healthy. Norman Powell and contributions from Bam Adebayo, Andrew Wiggins and Nikola Jovic should sustain the team during his recovery. At 25, Herro has shown clear growth: Sixth Man of the Year (2021-22), recovery from injuries to a career-high 77 games, first-time All-Star and 3-point contest champion. He shifted his shot profile toward 3s and rim drives, producing career-best efficiency and strong counting stats.
