"There is no positive way to spin the crushing news, reported by Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald, that Miami Heat All-Star guard Tyler Herro is undergoing surgery on his left foot and ankle. Early estimates have him missing roughly the first month of the upcoming campaign, but those are, at best, educated guesses. This is a massive setback for a team that, frankly, already wasn't expected to do much this season."
"While the Heat will likely take an egalitarian approach to replacing Herro, Davion Mitchell might see as big of a bump - in playing time and offensive opportunities - as anyone. And if he does, Miami fans will find out for sure just how much of his late-season surge was actually sustainable. Mitchell impressed after his deadline trade to the Heat last season, but he was having a forgettable career before that."
Tyler Herro is undergoing surgery on his left foot and ankle and is expected to miss roughly the first month of the upcoming season. His absence is a major setback for a Miami Heat team already projected to struggle. The injury opens opportunities for lesser-known players to assume larger roles. Davion Mitchell could receive significant increases in playing time and offensive responsibilities, which will test the sustainability of his late-season improvement. Mitchell significantly improved after his trade to Miami, raising his shooting, playmaking, and scoring. He averaged 10.3 points in 31.6 minutes, shot 50.4% overall and 44.7% on threes, and posted 5.3 assists with 1.7 turnovers.
