Will Tyler Herro’s return make a difference?
It’s anticipated that Tyler Herro will return to the Heat’s lineup as early as Game 3. This could work to their advantage and could be a major momentum swinger if the Heat can steal a game in the Mile High City.
Herro returning means the Heat adding another offensive weapon that the defense must account for. Herro was top 20 in the league in 3-pointers made during the regular reason and is one of the premier shooters in the NBA. During his last game against the Nuggets this past December, Herro scored 26 points to go along with 10 rebounds and five assists and also connected on four 3-pointers.
Since the Heat has had good chemistry and ball movement since Herro has been sidelined, Spoelstra will more than likely have him come off the bench while also inserting in the game when Butler needs a breather.
