"However, he may not be the star player the Heat needs right now. Miami hasn't missed much of a beat without Herro in the lineup so far this season, partly due to the acquisition of Norman Powell, and there's an argument to be made that he may provide greater value to Miami on the trade block than on the floor."
"Powell has done a lot of what the team has asked Herro to do in the past, and the question Miami needs to ask is whether he's the right star fit for the team. If their start of this season on the offensive end of the floor is any indication, I can't imagine that the answer to that question is yes."
Miami's offense has improved early in the season, reducing dependence on any single scorer and functioning effectively without Tyler Herro in the lineup. Norman Powell's acquisition has helped replace many of Herro's offensive responsibilities. Herro remains a good player and will contribute as a playmaker upon his return, but he may not fit as the team's primary star within the new, less ball-dominant scheme. The Heat face a decision between keeping Powell or Herro, and trading Herro could yield assets to pursue a true superstar. Erik Spoelstra's offensive reinvention appears aimed at lowering reliance on one player.
