That’s because Herro knows the season is still very young. But while his numbers may eventually drop off from this historic pace, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra and teammates notice there’s something different about this version of Herro. “The efficiency is winning basketball for sure,” Spoelstra said, with the Heat preparing for Sunday’s matchup against the Dallas Mavericks (6 p.m., FanDuel Sports Network Sun). “He’s a weapon. Now he’s reading the game, reading defenses and he’s making a lot of really good decisions. Off the ball, with the ball, he’s a tough guard right now.” Then there’s praise from the Heat’s leading duo of Bam Adebayo and Jimmy Butler, who have been Herro’s teammates since he was drafted by Miami with the 13th overall pick in 2019. “He’s just reading the game, man,” Adebayo said. “The game has slowed down so much for Tyler. He’s understanding how to get the ball, when to get the ball and he’s just making plays right now.” -via Miami Herald / November 22, 2024
