Herro spent 24 minutes on the floor and led Miami in scoring with 22 points, on 9/22 shooting and 2/7 from beyond the arc. He also had five rebounds and three assists in his first game since breaking his hand in Game 1 of the opening round of the playoffs vs. the Milwaukee Bucks.

Even though the Heat reached the NBA Finals, Herro wasn't ready to play in the series, which the team lost in five games.

"I'm just happy to be on the court. I haven’t played since April. I broke my hand and haven’t played since then, so I’m ready to play," Tyler Herro told reporters on Monday via Yahoo Sports.

"I mean, I don’t know what's changed. I got hurt, and we went on a run. So, I don’t know if that changed people’s perspectives on how I play or my values. Nothing’s changed. I haven’t gotten any worse. I’ve only gotten better, older, more experienced."

Herro got involved in numerous trade rumors during the summer as Miami pursued a trade for Portland Trail Blazers superstar Damian Lillard, as they didn't know if he would return to the Heat for the 2023-24 season. However, the Blazers were not interested in him, and the young sharpshooter will continue to stay in Miami.

"I didn’t want to go to Portland, so I’m glad Portland didn’t want me. I don’t want to be in Portland. So, it’s not personal with Portland at all," Herro told NBA insider Ira Winderman on Mondayivia Yahoo Sports.
