Tyler Herro Wants To Become Untouchable In Trades For Heat This Year

Tyler Herro distinguishes himself as one of the premiere shooting guards in the NBA in recent years.

In 2021-22, Herro had somewhat of a breakthrough season with the Miami Heat, averaging 20.7 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game on 44.7% shooting from the field that led him to win the 2022 Sixth Man of the Year.

His improved level of play has helped the Miami Heat turn the corner last season as well, and could confirm his performance.

Nontheless, Herro found himself in the midst of trade rumors this past summer. In their quest to land Damian Lillard, it was Herro who was the center of trade discussion, but the Blazers didn’t want to trade for him.

Now, with seemingly another season in a Heat coming up, Herro spoke to Anthony Chiang of The Miami Herald, Tyler and revealed that his goal is to become an untouchable player for the Heat.

“Honestly, my goal this year is to get my name untouchable. That’s my goal,” Herro said. “At the end of this season, they won’t want to trade me. That’s my goal.”
