And then nothing went according to plan, with injuries to Butler, Lowry, Herro and Caleb Martin turning Erik Spoelstra’s rotations upside down.

But Herro, whom Miami made it to the Finals without, could also foreseeably be trade fodder for a big star (

But with a lineup of Adebayo, Martin, Butler, Herro and Vincent the Heat, in those 105 minutes this season, have a positive net rating of 18.6.

But with starting shooting guard Tyler Herro sidelined with the broken hand sustained in Game 1, there simply was not enough competitive depth.

Heat guard Tyler Herro has been invited to launch from deep during All-Star Weekend.

He certainly can carry his minutes with the starting unit, albeit with concerns about that unit’s defensive efficiency if it also includes Kevin Love and Tyler Herro.

I would agree with them, but I would agree it had to do with it being less cooks in the kitchen than it being Tyler Herro himself.

Oladipo (torn left patellar tendon in Game 3) is out for the rest of the season for Miami, as is Tyler Herro (broken right hand in Game 1).

That appeared to be the case again on Monday, with Tyler Herro and Victor out.

The Heat’s standard roster is so flawed and limited (with Udonis Haslem taking one of the spots) that it only seems fair to Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro to give them the best possible running mates for the stretch run of the playoff race.

Then starting shooting guard Tyler Herro broke his right hand in Game 1 of this best-of-seven Eastern Conference series against the Milwaukee Bucks.

The timetables of Herro, Oladipo and Lowry likely will have an impact on what comes next for Robinson, who had been largely shuffled out of the rotation prior to his surgery.

The Wolves get Tyler Herro, who profiles as an interesting offensive partner for Edwards in the backcourt.

Tyler Herro (broken hand) and Victor Oladipo (torn knee ligament) are out.

Tyler Herro scored 24 points and was an assist shy of a triple-double, Jimmy Butler added 20 points and the Heat snapped a four-game slide by beating the Washington Wizards 121-114 on Friday night.

Tyler Herro will be mentioned in a deal, but using him in a deal for a potential rental might be not worth giving up his long-term deal.

Wait, Tyler Herro and Duncan Robinson play defense, too?

While Herro played a starter in the 2020 NBA Finals as an injury replacement, with Goran Dragic ailing, this is the first time entering a postseason in that role.

With Butler out, the Heat went with a starting lineup of Adebayo, Kevin Love, Martin, Herro and Kyle Lowry.
