"Starting on October 1, Tyler Herro will become eligible to sign a three-year extension worth nearly $150 million. Don't bother setting your calendar notification, though, because an instant agreement on a new contract with the Miami Heat would be shocking to see. This situation is complicated. Giving Herro the bag now might close the door on Miami's more ambitious long-term goals. Then again, delaying a new deal could prove costly if the dynamic guard, who booked his first All-Star trip this past season, takes another step forward and skyrockets his price rate."
"Speaking of his offense, it's a lot closer to great than good. This past season, he was one of only eight players to average at least 23 points, five assists, and three three-pointers, per StatHead Basketball. Stephen Curry, Jayson Tatum, and Luka Doncic were among the others. Herro also earned a 93rd percentile ranking in estimated offensive plus/minus, per Dunks & Threes. It was the same ranking Kevin Durant held."
Tyler Herro becomes eligible on October 1 to sign a three-year extension worth nearly $150 million, creating a challenging decision for the Miami Heat between paying now and preserving long-term flexibility. Paying Herro could limit Miami's ability to pursue larger roster moves, while delaying a deal risks his continued improvement and a substantially higher market price. A trade remains possible but uncertain amid league skepticism about one-way scoring guards. Herro is Miami's best offensive player, averaged at least 23 points, five assists and three three-pointers last season, and earned a 93rd percentile offensive plus/minus.
