Miami Heat: 3 Bold Predictions for Tyler Herro – A Near 20 Points Per Player

His usage also was up from 22.2 percent in 2020 to 23.5 percent in 2021. The only areas in which Tyler Herro did not improve on are 3-point percentage and free throw percentage.

I expect him to bounce back and improve on those numbers this year.

18+ Points Per Game Scorer

The first bold prediction for Tyler Herro this year, is that he will be an 18 points per game player. After averaging 13.5 points per in his rookie season, Herro followed it up in his sophomore campaign with 15.1 per game.

I believe he will follow it up this year by improving his point per game number yet again. Miami has, arguably, the best starting five in the Eastern Conference and NBA.

The addition of Kyle Lowry makes any case for the Heat to return to the NBA Finals stronger. The weakness I see for now is the lack of scoring off the bench.

Between, Herro, Markieff Morris, Max Strus, Dewayne Dedmon, and KZ Okpala, Herro will need to be the leader and the go-to scorer for the 2nd unit. I believe Herro will take the necessary jump to provide the Heat with a strong scorer of the bench.
