"Herro missed the first 17 games recovering from offseason foot surgery that he underwent in December. He returned on Nov. 24, playing in six games before another injury related to a left toe injury he suffered in early December. He will miss his seventh-straight game - 26th total - of the season on Saturday against the Indiana Pacers. While he's made progress in his recovery, Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra stated there's still no timetable for a recovery for the 6-foot-5 guard."
"Heading into the season, it remained a big question whether or not Tyler Herro and Norman Powell would fit together. Both players have overlapping skillsets offensively, while Powell is the better defender of the two players. They have only played 72 minutes with a plus-16.1 NET. It's a small sample, but they have looked good together offensively. Though Herro's prolonged absence limits the amount of time those two can get acclimated together."

He has appeared in six games this season and will miss his seventh straight game on Saturday, marking 26 total missed contests. Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said Herro is making progress but provided no timetable for a return. Herro and Norman Powell have overlapping offensive skillsets and have only played 72 minutes together with a plus-16.1 NET. Several players have stepped up in his absence, but Herro remains one of Miami's best offensive players.
