Heat’s Tyler Herro Targets Monday Return vs. Mavericks

A Monday debut would keep his awards eligibility alive under the 65-game rule.

Overview

  • AP reporter Tim Reynolds reports Herro is aiming to play Monday in Dallas after rejoining full-team practice last Sunday.
  • The targeted game comes on the second night of a back-to-back, adding an immediate test of his readiness and usage.
  • Miami has moved to a faster, drive-and-kick offense, and team figures have expressed confidence he can fit that approach.
  • Norman Powell’s blistering start—about 25 points per game on elite three-point shooting—creates unresolved questions about starting spots and Davion Mitchell’s bench role.
  • Coverage notes a Monday return would leave Herro eligible to hit the 65-game threshold for postseason honors only if he does not miss another game.
