After showing out in the bubble during the 2020 NBA Playoffs his rookie season, Tyler Herro had a somewhat disappointing Sophomore season with the Miami Heat. Though he averaged 15 points off the bench his second season, the general consensus was that Herro was going to have a breakout season after averaging over 19 points against the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Nearly halfway through his third NBA season, Tyler Herro is finally having the season most expected from him in 2020-21. After 38 games, Herro is scoring nearly 21 points off the bench for a Miami Heat team that’s first in the Southeast Division. If we were the betting type, we’d take the odds at 1xbetonline.in that Herro will make his first appearance in the 2022 NBA All-Star game. Even Sports Illustrated is making a case for Herro as an all-star.
Here’s Tyler Herro working out… shirtless
Herro’s game has improved because he’s put the work in and there’s a lot of receipts of Herro doing just that. He’s on the court working on his handle, perfecting his shot and polishing his overall game
And when Tyler Herro is in the gym, he’s either wearing some dope shorts or cap showing off his drip. Just as often, he’s without a shirt. Seemingly much more than most NBA players that we’ve seen. We can’t blame him, the temperature in Miami is often balmy with no shortage of humidity. Here’s the visual receipts of Herro in the lab shirtless. In the pool shirtless. On a boat without a shirt. Posing for PSD underwear shirtless. Well, you get the point.
Confidence and working on his game
What has Herro done differently this year? We’re not entirely sure but what we know is that he hasn’t ever lacked confidence. That was evident when he started off the season stating that he believes he should be in the same conversation as some of the league’s marquee young players
“I feel like I’m in the same conversation as those guys, the young guys coming up in the league who can be All-Stars, superstars one day,” Herro casually told Jeremy Tache on the Miami Mic’d Up podcast. “You know, Luka, Trae, Ja. Those guys like that, I feel like my name should be in that category, too. I put the work in, and I’m just continuing to get better every single day”
Herro hasn’t hid the fact that he idolizes Kobe Bryant. And in that vein, he imitates his hero in how hard Tyler works on his game during the off-season. The evidence is there for everyone to see.
