The Heat have played three games since Herro was sidelined, going 2-1 with wins over the Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Lakers, plus a close loss to the Atlanta Hawks.</p><p>The 22-year-old is having a bounce-back season after underwhelming a bit in 2020-21. Herro made waves as a rookie, especially in the bubble, but he didn’t take the leap in Year 2 that many expected. There were a bunch of trade rumors surrounding the young guard, but Miami kept him and has seen him ramp up his output this season, which has been needed with so many health problems.</p><p>Herro is averaging 20.7 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.0 assists while shooting 43.0% from the field and 38.8% from 3-point range. Both Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo have missed extended time this season, so Herro stepping up to the plate has been necessary.</p><p>Despite all the health issues, the Heat are sitting on top of the Eastern Conference with a 30-17 record. The top of the East is extremely bunched up right now, with the sixth-seeded Philadelphia 76ers just 2.5 games back of Miami. It’s going to be a competitive fight down the stretch and into the playoffs, so the Heat will need this level of play from Tyler Herro as he returns.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Herro is averaging 20.7 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.0 assists while making 2.6 3-pointers per game.

Definitely.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">Mini-Editorials</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>Tyler Herro has been <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/heat-nws-etyler-herro-gets-hyped-by-tyler-herro-after-scoring-barrage-in-win-over-pistons/">balling out</a> for the Miami Heat this season. He’s been an absolute revelation for this side and his strong play has propelled him as the frontrunner for this term’s Sixth Man of the Year.</p><p>One of the reasons behind Herro’s strong play stems from the fact that he currently has just two more years remaining on his current deal. The 21-year-old knows that he’s literally playing for his future here and this has produced some of the best basketball of the Heat stud’s young career.</p><p>As it seems, however, Tyler Herro will need to keep his expectations in check. According to ESPN analyst and former Brooklyn Nets executive Bobby Marks, Herro should accept the harsh reality that the Heat aren’t going to be offering him a max deal this summer:</p><blockquote>“I don’t think he’s getting that [a max deal] from Miami next offseason,” Marks told <a href="https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/barry-jackson/article256096197.html">Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald</a>, via text message.</blockquote><p>There’s no denying that Herro has been one of the best players on the Heat this season, and it’s also true that he’s one of the brightest young stars in the NBA today. Nevertheless, this does not mean that Miami will be putting a max deal on the table for him. The truth is that he just hasn’t done enough to deserve a contract in the $150 million range.</p><p>Be that as it may, Herro is still expected to put pen to paper on a massive extension in the offseason. According to Marks, the 6-foot-5 shooting guard could be looking at upwards of $20 million per year with the Heat:</p><blockquote>“Shooting is certainly a premium right now,” Marks said. “Average shooters are getting $17-$18 million right now. I think he’s north of $20 million. Different player but likely in that Mikal Bridges-type territory — four years, $90 million. Might be a little more.”</blockquote><p>If Marks is right, then Herro could be penning a deal worth at least $100 million for four years. That’s not max money, but that’s absolutely not bad at all either. After all, Herro is just in his third season in the NBA and he still has a lot of basketball ahead of him. If he continues on his current trajectory then it would not be surprising if he ends up penning a max deal in the future.</p><p>The big question now is whether or not Tyler Herro will sign his name on the dotted line. The Heat have given him the right platform to reach his potential since being drafted by the team as the 13th overall pick in 2019. He’s a fan favorite in South Beach as well, so at this point, all signs are pointing towards a lengthy and fruitful marriage between Herro and the Heat.</p><p>You have to note that nothing is set in stone, though, and up and until he puts pen to paper, then anything can still happen. Several teams out there will be keeping their eye on Herro’s situation in Miami especially given his breakout campaign this year. One mistake by the Heat and they could end up losing their sharp-shooting rising star.</p><p> </p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They say lightning doesn’t strike twice but in this case, it probably did as later on in the night, in a different game, Tyler Herro of the Miami Heat had a triple-double ripped from his hands by…you guessed it, <a href="https://twitter.com/BallySportsFL/status/1481457881874632704">a rookie!</a></p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">The Heat bench got mad at Omer Yurtseven for taking the rebound from Tyler Herro 🤣 </p><p>Herro was 2 rebounds from the triple-double…<a href="https://twitter.com/MiamiHEAT?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">@MiamiHEAT</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/HEATCulture?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">#HEATCulture</a> <a href="https://t.co/qrUJuOCvpW" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/qrUJuOCvpW</a></p><p>— Bally Sports Florida &amp; Bally Sports Sun (@BallySportsFL) <a href="https://twitter.com/BallySportsFL/status/1481457881874632704?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">January 13, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>At the time of the play, Herro was just two rebounds shy of the triple-double, and low and behold at the end of the game: he finished just one rebound short. While Omer Yurtseven may have just been doing his job, just like Kispert was when he made the extra pass to get a better shot, none of that matters when it comes to players’ accolades…apparently. Even the Heat bench can be seen yelling at the rookie and letting him know that he was getting in the way of “history” for the young guard.</p><p>Herro has been to the NBA Finals as a rookie and matched a lot of Magic Johnson’s records for the youngest player in the playoffs to accomplish certain feats. That was much bigger for the kid than this would have been so it’s easy to move on. The Heat blew out the Hawks so Herro could afford to be messing around a bit. Kuzma got mad at Kispert for making the extra pass in a game that was still in question and that just seems like a player that doesn’t care about winning.

Late during the fourth quarter of a tight game, Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic and Heat guard Tyler Herro got into a physical altercation.</p><p>It was announced on Friday that the <a href="http://fanatics.93n6tx.net/gbAzR2" rel="noopener">NBA</a> has fined both players $25,000 for their roles in the fight, <a href="https://twitter.com/TheSteinLine/status/1479526166591647744">according to NBA correspondent Marc Stein:</a></p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Full NBA statement on the fines assessed to Portland’s Nurkic and Miami’s Herro “for their roles in an on-court altercation.” <a href="https://t.co/EZu6OmRJMD" target="_blank">https://t.co/EZu6OmRJMD</a> <a href="https://t.co/1VoEYIiuwh" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/1VoEYIiuwh</a></p><p>— Marc Stein (@TheSteinLine) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheSteinLine/status/1479526166591647744?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">January 7, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>Nurkic appeared to set a hard pick out beyond the 3-point line, sending Herro to the ground. Herro took exception and charged after Nurkic, shoving his forearm into his back from behind. Nurkic went back at Herro, attempting to shove him in the face with an open hand.</p><p>It did not look too dissimilar to what happened between Nikola Jokic and Markieff Morris. The biggest difference was that Herro was unable to create close to the same level of impact against the much bigger Nurkic:</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="und"><a href="https://t.co/5TS1Gn8n4f" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/5TS1Gn8n4f</a></p><p>— Rob Perez (@WorldWideWob) <a href="https://twitter.com/WorldWideWob/status/1478961863001968648?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">January 6, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>Both players received technicals and were ejected from the game, and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/blazers-news-jusuf-nurkic-sends-message-to-tyler-herro-after-late-game-fracas/" rel="noopener">there was a little action on social media afterward.</a> Miami ended up getting the best of it by winning the game, 115-109. They did so without the services of leading scorer Jimmy Butler. The win improved the Heat’s record to 24-15. They are only three games behind the Chicago Bulls for the top seed in the Eastern Conference. But the Brooklyn Nets and Milwaukee Bucks stand between them and the top as well.</p><p>Meanwhile, the loss dropped Portland to 14-23 on the season. Injuries to Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum have had a huge impact on the team’s success thus far. The silver lining is that there are reports that <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/blazers-news-portland-gets-huge-update-on-cj-mccollums-collapsed-lung/" rel="noopener">both players could return this season.</a></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
