"Make no mistake, one way or another, whatever the Heat decides to ultimately do with Herro over the next few weeks will have a huge impact on how this offseason will be remembered - and will certainly also have a huge hand in how this team is able to operate heading into the future. While it's impossible to predict what exactly will end up happening with Herro, one thing is for certain: none of this is simple or straightforward by any means."
"In a vacuum, there's a strong reason to believe that Herro has done enough to warrant a big contract extension. He's improved each of the last few seasons for the Heat, making the developmental growth from being a sixth man to a starter. He even made the leap to an All-Star guard this past season, posting career highs in points, assists, and field goal percentage."
"Miami just can't give Herro a contract extension without understanding the financial implications of it all. And the bottom line is that if the Heat were to give Herro anything close to the max extension he's eligible for, it would cripple the team into mediocrity.

He is eligible for a three-year, $150 million maximum extension. Granting anything near that amount would drastically constrain salary flexibility and could push the team into mediocrity. The organization must balance rewarding Herro's development and on-court value against long-term roster construction, salary-cap management, and the team's future competitiveness.
