"That puts his return around late-November, right before Thanksgiving. If this timeline is accurate, and Herro is able to return around November 20, that would put him right at 15 games missed. Even though it's far from ideal for the Heat, there's reason to believe that Miami could survive with that projection. It certainly won't be easy, especially when you look at their early-season schedule, but it could've been a lot worse for both Herro and the Heat."
"With as many questions as surround this team, I'm not sure they would've been able to survive many injuries to their roster. Losing Herro to begin the year is absolutely brutal. Looking at their schedule out of the gate, the Heat are going to have their work cut out for them if they're going to keep their head above water without Herro."
Tyler Herro underwent successful left ankle surgery and is expected to miss about eight weeks, projecting a late-November return around November 20 and approximately 15 games missed. The Miami Heat face a difficult early schedule, with seven of the first eight games against projected playoff teams, six of those on the road, and 11 of the first 15 versus likely postseason teams. Missing Herro during that stretch could leave the Heat in a significant hole. Coaching decisions will be required on the starting lineup and Herro's role upon return, and a contract extension decision must be addressed in October.
