Tyler Herro Will Miss the Start of the 2025-26 Season
The Miami Heat’s star player, Tyler Herro, will undergo surgery on his left foot this Friday and will be out of the courts at the beginning of the 2025-26 season.
According to sources, Herro is expected to be out for eight weeks, which would rule him out for approximately the first 12 games of the Heat’s regular season.
Herro had problems with a compression in his left foot last season. Subsequently, the Heat guard suffered an ankle injury during a preseason training, which led to the decision to undergo surgery.
Miami will have to start next season without its top scorer. Herro is coming off his best season, averaging 23.9 points, 5.5 assists, and 5.2 rebounds per game in the 2024-25 campaign.
Seeking to recover from a disappointing end, where the Heat were outmatched in three of their four consecutive losses to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round, Miami reinforced its offense and shooting by acquiring Norman Powell and Simone Fontecchio, in addition to selecting guard Kasparas Jakucionis to support Herro, Bam Adebayo, Andrew Wiggins, and Kel’el Ware.
Herro made his first All-Star appearance last season and has averaged at least 20 points and five rebounds in each of the last four seasons.
