In the 2024-2025 NBA season, Tyler Herro has emerged as the focal point of the Miami Heat's offense, recording a team-high usage rate of 27.1%. Herro's role has intensified following the trade of six-time All-Star Jimmy Butler, leading to career highs in various offensive metrics. The team's reliance on him peaked in February with a usage rate above 30% as he adapted to increased responsibilities, averaging over 24 points and 7 assists. Herro acknowledges the dual challenge of scoring and facilitating for teammates during this period of heightened responsibility.
"Just embracing it," Herro, 25, said of the challenge that comes with carrying that responsibility on the offensive end. "The challenge I would say is just toggling back and forth with trying to make plays for myself and make plays for my teammates."
