Tyler Herro injury status vs. Nets
Right now, the reigning Sixth Man of the Year is dealing with a contusion in his left knee. It doesn't sound overly concerning, but unfortunately, it is serious enough to force him to sit out against the Brooklyn Nets. Herro was ruled out for the game more than 24 hours prior to tipoff, which means that he wasn't even close to potentially suiting up against the Nets. In fact, Herro did not even travel with the team to Brooklyn.
Thursday's game will be the Heat's last matchup before the All-Star break, and Miami has opted to give their star more time to heal ahead of the mid-season hiatus. Although, Herro is still expected to take part in Saturday's All-Star 3-point contest in Salt Lake City.
Duncan Robinson, however, who was initially tagged as questionable to play, will be available against the Nets. Kyle Lowry, Victor Oladipo, Nikola Jovic, and Omer Yurtseven remain out for Miami.
Now with regard to the question of is Tyler Herro playing tonight vs. the Nets, the answer is no.
