Heat president makes SURPRISE admission about major asset in Damian Lillard trade package

This year’s NBA offseason has provided fans and experts with ample room for speculation, and a particular tweet is offering a glimmer of hope to Tyler Herro‘s supporters in Miami, despite the ongoing discussions involving him in a potential Damian Lillard trade.

Miami Heat’s president, Pat Riley, has publicly expressed his admiration for Tyler Herro, emphasizing the significant role Herro plays as a cornerstone for the team.

Riley started off by saying how Herro shines the most in the biggest moments, a quality that has been evident to the Heat nation since the Orlando Bubble. He further added that the Heat have two outstanding anchors in Bam Adebayo and Herro.

Since his NBA debut in 2019, Tyler Herro has emerged as one of the Miami Heat’s most promising young talents. Renowned for his scoring prowess and clutch shooting, Herro quickly captured the attention of fans and played a pivotal role in the team’s successes throughout all these NBA seasons.

If Herro remains with the Miami Heat, it signifies their commitment to nurturing the young talent within their roster and prioritizing the overall development and future success of the team in the league.

Herro’s growth within the team has showcased immense potential, consistently proving himself since his rookie season in the league. His standout performances even propelled the Heat to the 2020 NBA Finals. During the last season, Herro averaged 20.1 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.2 assists in 67 games, a remarkable achievement for a young talent like him.

What does this mean for a potential Damian Lillard trade to Miami?

If Tyler Herro is not included in trade discussions for Portland superstar Damian Lillard, it raises the possibility that Miami may explore alternatives or even reconsider pursuing a trade for Lillard altogether, potentially exploring different avenues to engage the Portland Trail Blazers in trade negotiations.

If Herro remains with the Miami Heat and isn’t part of a trade for Lillard, the Heat would need to craft an alternative trade proposal that aligns with the Trail Blazers’ needs. To match the value Lillard offers, this could involve other players, draft picks, or assets in the potential trade package.

Should a trade involving Herro for Lillard not materialize, the Miami Heat might explore alternative trade targets or consider free-agent options to bolster their roster. While there has been no official statement from the Trail Blazers, the basketball community eagerly awaits developments in the Damian Lillard trade saga leading up to the start of training camps.
