Tyler Herro Paces Team With 19 Points
Tyler Herro compiled 19 points, 10 rebounds, five assists, and one steal in 32 minutes during Thursday's loss to the Clippers. Herro returned to the lineup on Thursday after dealing with a neck injury and he played his first contest since January 14. The 21-year-old was sensational, pacing the team in points and getting a double-double. With much of the Heat still affected by injuries, Herro has a real chance to put up some solid numbers in the next few games. He has a very favorable matchup on Saturday against the Kings who have the worst defensive rating in the league and are tied for most points allowed per game.

Tyler Herro Leads Heat Past Bulls Wednesday Night
Tyler Herro was on fire in Wednesday's play-in game against the Chicago Bulls, racking up a game-high 38 points in a 109-90 road win. He was unconscious in the first half, sinking all eight shots for 23 points to help Miami grab a 71-47 lead. The Bulls did a much better job defensively in the second half, but still had no answers for Herro, who finished 13-for-19 from the field with a 3-for-7 record from downtown. The first-year All-Star rounded out his line with five rebounds, four assists, and one steal. Herro's play was on another level compared to others, but he also has room for improvement for Friday's showdown against the Atlanta Hawks, as he committed seven turnovers. In four regular-season meetings with the Hawks, Herro averaged 24.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, 6.8 assists, and 1.5 steals, shooting 40 percent from three-point land.

Tyler Herro Removed From Injury Report
Tyler Herro (rest) has been removed from the injury report and is good to go for Wednesday's contest against the Chicago Bulls in the Play-In Tournament. Miami rested Herro on Sunday as the team wrapped up its regular season schedule with a loss to the Washington Wizards. Herro has been a headache for the Bulls all year and must deliver another big performance for the Heat to keep their playoff hopes alive. In three regular-season meetings with Chicago, Herro averaged 24.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 6.3 assists.

Tyler Herro Available Against Philadelphia
Tyler Herro (thigh) will return to action on Monday against the Philadelphia 76ers. Herro's status has been upgraded from questionable to available. He is ready to rejoin the fun after missing Saturday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks due to a thigh contusion. Herro has been on fire for the past couple of weeks and figures to carry a larger offensive role in Monday's game, as Bam Adebayo (back) has been ruled out. The team also remains without Andrew Wiggins (hamstring).

Tyler Herro May Miss Monday's Game Against 76ers
Tyler Herro (thigh) has been listed as questionable ahead of Monday's tip-off against the Philadelphia 76ers due to a right thigh contusion. He has played some heavy minutes this season, as he averages more than 37 minutes per game so far in April, including 10 games this season with 40 or more minutes. If he's sidelined for this one, against a tanking team, Pelle Larson and Duncan Robinson should both see added minutes like they did in their overtime loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. Larson could be the sneaky DFS play, but presents a lot more risk than Robinson. In that game against the Bucks, Robinson posted 16 points, three assists, and two rebounds.
