The Heat have been without star guard Tyler Herro for much of their postseason run, having lost the 23-year-old to a broken hand during their first-round series against the Bucks.
The injury was expected to take about six weeks to recover from, and considering the Heat were the No. 8 seed in the East, many assumed Herro’s season had come to a close.
However, with Miami up 3–0 over the Celtics in the Eastern Conference finals, Heat beat writer Ira Winderman reported a significant update to Herro’s status.
