Could Tyler Herro return as Miami Heat NBA playoff reserve?


Q: Do you think Tyler Herro is a liability when he’s healthy and playing? It seems like when he’s not playing it’s more of a group effort to get the win. – Reg, Virginia Beach, Va.

A: First, let’s not kick the injured when they’re down. And Tyler Herro did make a contribution in Game 3 with his unique blue bucket hat. So there was that. But with the Heat’s replacement lineups, it has allowed for an additional 3-pointer shooter (in Max Strus) while deducting a two-point shooter from a lineup that already features the two-point games of Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo. Plus, it allows for a defensive upgrade. Just as Kyle Lowry returned from his injury absence as a reserve, I could see the same with Tyler if he can make it make to the postseason from his broken hand.
