Tyler Herro

Herro's excellent season continued in this game, and he has been especially hot as of late. He has shot better than 50% in each of their last four games while averaging 26.3 points, 5.5 assists and 4.8 triples per game. Herro is in the midst of the best year of his career, and he has been Miami's top option on offense. The rumors have been swirling about a potential Jimmy Butler trade, but Herro won't be impacted by any move that may or may not happen. He'll just keep cooking.

Add the Suns to Butler's trade list. It appears more likely everyday that the 35-year-old small forward will be moved by the trade deadline. A deal would unleash Tyler Herro as the Heat's top scoring option and Jaime Jaquez Jr. would enter the starting lineup.

Miami is open to trading Butler in the middle of his sixth season with the team. The 35-year-old forward remains a jack of all trades but is averaging less than 20.0 points per game for the first time since 2019-20. His departure would clear the way for Tyler Herro to be the clear-cut first option on offense and make room for Jaime Jaquez Jr. to become a regular starter.

Ranking-wise, Herro has been Miami's best fantasy option this season. He is the lone Heat player providing top-40 value in 8- and 9-cat formats heading into the team's final two games of Week 7. Miami will host Cleveland on Saturday and won't play again until Thursday against the Raptors.

Herro has scored 31 points twice in three December outings and matched his second-highest total for three-pointers made in a contest. The Heat guard has blossomed in into Miami's leading scorer.
