Not many people expected Miami Heat SG Tyler Herro to be this good so early in his career. A highly-recruited prospect who starred in one season at Kentucky, Herro took the NBA Bubble by storm in the summer of 2020, helping lead the Heat to the NBA Finals. After a lackluster 2020-21 season that saw Miami get swept out of the playoffs, Herro is primed to bounce back for a revamped South Beach team that harbors legitimate title aspirations.

TYLER HERRO’S READY FOR A BREAKOUT CAMPAIGN INTO ALL-STAR CALIBER TERRITORY
COLORS KEY | FULL HEAT OUTLOOK
After a breakout performance for the Heat during the 2020 Bubble Playoffs, which led to an NBA Finals appearance, Miami SG Tyler Herro is eager to bounce back from a 2020-21 season in which he struggled mightily. As a team, the Heat could not find the same magic that they captured in the bubble, but a revamped roster that includes the additions of PG Kyle Lowry and F PJ Tucker allows Herro the chance to shine on the big stage again.
While his fellow sharpshooter Duncan Robinson frequently moves without the ball and is more of a spot-up shooter, Herro can shoot a variety of jump shots, both pull-up and off the dribble, and can finish around the rim. That element of his game makes him much more difficult to guard, even when his outside shots aren’t falling. Add in the spacing and the playmaking ability of stars Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo, and Herro has the potential to bounce back and have a special season as he’s already breaking Heat records.
