Tyler Herro

Tyler Herro (ankle) will be available to make his return tonight against the Hornets.

Fantasy Impact

Herro has been out for over a month nursing the right ankle injury. This comes as perfect timing, as Jimmy Butler (toe) has been ruled out for tonight’s game. Herro might be available in a few leagues, and deserves to be picked up in most leagues given his early season performance. Kendrick Nunn (illness) will also be available tonight for the Heat.

Ira Winderman on Twitter is reporting that Tyler Herro practice in full and is expected to return to the Heat line-up on Wednesday versus the Hornets at home.

Fantasy Impact

Tyler Herro has been out for 15 games due to right ankle soreness. During that stretch Goran Dragic has been playing at another level. With Herro’s possible return, Dragic’s minutes might be reduced in order to integrate Herro back into the rotation. Dragic should still be started in all leagues and check your waiver wires to see if Herro is floating around there and pick him up if you have an extra spot on your fantasy rosters.

Ira Winderman on Twitter is reporting that Tyler Herro did not travel with the Heat to New Orleans and will be out for Friday versus the Pelicans and be unlikely for Sunday against the Wizards due to a sore right ankle. Meyers Leonard also did not make the trip to New Orleans and will miss both games as well with a sore right ankle of his own.

Fantasy Impact

Since Herro has been out with his ankle injury, Goran Dragic has been playing great basketball again for the Heat with the extra minutes he has received. Look for the Dragon to keep lighting up the NBA until Herro returns.

Ira Winderman on Twitter is reporting that Coach Erik Spoestra has confirmed that Tyler Herro and Meyers Leonard are once again out for the Heat on Wednesday as they battle their state rivals the Magic.

Fantasy Impact

Herro has been practicing with the team and there is hope that he returns to the Heat very soon. Goran Dragic is a must start as he’s been playing great over his last several games.

Tyler Herro (right ankle) has been ruled out for Monday night’s game against Milwaukee.

Fantasy Impact

Herro hasn’t played since February 3 against Philadelphia, but indications are he could return soon from the ankle injury. Duncan Robinson and Goran Dragic in particular have really stepped up in Herro’s absence over the past month. Look for Herro to be eased back into the rotation when he does return, and keep rolling out all your Miami Heat starters + Dragic in what continues to be a very tight rotation.
