"It's an encouraging update that the Heat have been waiting to hear for far too long. But even though the Heat would've liked to get this news weeks ago, the return of Herro now will certainly give this team a real shot to hit the ground running heading into the final push for the playoffs. While many fans may disagree with the approach, the Heat are pushing for a playoff spot."
"In the 11 games that Herro did play in this season, Miami was just 4-7. That's not all on Herro, but it does indicate Miami was struggling to make everyone fit. That absolutely needs to change, and the Heat will need to find the right way to not only bring Herro along slowly but also to help him find his rhythm."
"For all the complaints about Herro, there may not be a bigger issue right now than the fact that he just hasn't been healthy this year. It's not even about his play on the floor. Because when he's been healthy, he's been largely productive. Sure, there are times when he struggles on the defensive end of the floor, but he's the type of player whose offensive prowess should be a welcome sight for the Heat."
Tyler Herro is scheduled to return to practice Thursday and likely will rejoin the Miami Heat in the next few games. His return could boost Miami's odds of making the playoffs, as the team sits two games behind the sixth seed and three behind the fifth. Miami struggled to integrate Herro earlier, going 4-7 in his 11 appearances, so coaching staff must find the right role and reintegrate him slowly. Herro's primary current issue is health rather than production; when healthy he has been largely productive offensively, though defensive lapses and team inconsistency remain concerns.
