Tyler Herro had 35 points (12-of-21 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), nine rebounds, nine assists, one steal and eight three-pointers in the Heat’s 128-120 victory over the Hornets on Friday.
Herro has had some good games since returning from injury this season, but none better than Friday’s 35-point effort in the win over the Hornets. The 26-year-old point guard was on fire from downtown, going 8-of-10 from behind the three-point line. Herro has shot above 50 percent from the field in five consecutive games. While he won’t stay hot like this forever, Herro’s managers have to enjoy the ride. The Heat close out the week against the Pistons on Sunday.
