Tyler Herro Still Not Ready To Return
5 months agoMiami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. It doesn't sound as if Herro is making significant progress in returning from a Grade 2 ankle sprain that he suffered nearly five weeks ago on Nov. 8, looking to be on the doubtful side of things for Thursday versus the Chicago Bulls. Jimmy Butler will continue to function as Miami's clear-cut No. 1 scoring option for as long as Herro and Bam Adebayo (hip) remain out. Despite a one-point clunker on Friday, Duncan Robinson's streaming value for points and threes in fantasy lives on with 16.8 points, 3.5 assists and 3.3 threes in 31.6 minutes over 13 games without Herro in 2023-24. First-round rookie Jaime Jaquez Jr. has gotten a chance to shine during his extended absence as well, averaging 15.6 points, 3.8 rebounds 2.8 assists, and 1.5 treys in 31.8 minutes across 15 games sans Herro this season.
