"The Miami Heat could've signed Tyler Herro to a rich extension this past summer. Instead, they decided to hold firm in waiting for this situation to play out, and it seems as if they've made the right call. Herro has struggled to fit in with the Heat's new philosophy, and they still have the same star problems with or without him in the lineup."
"There's still a lot of season left for Herro to change the narrative, but, at least for now, he's not playing anything like a player who is worth the $40-plus million per year extension that his camp is likely hoping for. In October, Herro was eligible for a three-year. $150 million contract extension with the Heat. However, it doesn't seem as if there were any substantial talks between the two sides, and a contract extension never got close."
The Miami Heat declined to sign Tyler Herro to a rich extension this summer, opting to wait on a long-term commitment. Herro has struggled to adapt to the Heat's new offensive philosophy and has not elevated the team's overall ceiling despite strong personal scoring and efficient 50/40/90 shooting. The Heat are 3-3 with Herro in the lineup, and his reintegration has limited the development of Kel'el Ware and Jaime Jaquez Jr. The front office decision signals caution about offering a $40-plus million per year extension, though significant season time remains for Herro to change perceptions.
