Miami Heat star Tyler Herro is no stranger to the trade block, meaning it’s almost inevitable for his name to land there once again.
Herro is not the Heat’s most enticing trade asset (as that title goes to veteran star Jimmy Butler), but his inconsistencies make him the most expendable. The front office taunts with the idea of moving him for a third superstar, including Milwaukee Bucks’ Damian Lillard and Cleveland Cavaliers’ Donovan Mitchell.
These failed deals took place during summer, as Herro seemingly vanishes from rumors in the regular season. This pattern will likely end in the upcoming season.
The former Sixth Man of the Year is stuck in a lose-lose situation when it comes to the outcome of the Heat’s season.
Team president Pat Riley should entertain the idea of adding superstar talent for a championship push, barring high seeding at the trade deadline. Utah Jazz’s Lauri Markkanen is among possible options if he is not traded to the Golden State Warriors.
