Tyler Herro: 'I'm glad Portland didn't want me'
So if Portland Trail Blazers General Manager Joe Cronin had no use for Herro in a trade for since-dealt All-Star point guard Damian Lillard, so be it, Herro said. “I didn’t want to go to Portland, so I’m glad Portland didn’t want me,” he said in a tone more of resignation to an offseason of doubt than of particular vitriol toward Cronin. “I just don’t want to be in Portland. So it’s not personal with Portland, at all.

Tyler Herro just set a Red, White and Pink game record with 17 first-quarter points. Jimmy Butler also set one by making two free throws with his eyes closed. And Bam stole a rebound from Kevin Love. You guys, I think they’re not taking this game very seriously. – 7:22 PM

The key to me in today’s scrimmage won’t be how Jovic and Jaquez look
We’ve seen that already
The key is how they look next to the primary guys on the team
Teams will be mixed throughout the night, but that will be prioritized
Playing off Butler-Bam-Herro – 11:35 AM

From this weekend: Heat guard Tyler Herro has said all the right things this week after dealing with another summer of trade rumors.
But Herro admits one of his big goals this season is to “get my name untouchable.”

More on this storyline
Not activated from his broken hand until the Heat’s final game of the NBA Finals, Herro, 23, never got into that loss to the Denver Nuggets, then, as now, convinced he could have made a difference. And then another summer seemingly of being cast as chum, previously for Kevin Durant, this time for Lillard, who eventually was dealt to the Milwaukee Bucks. “My value maybe has decreased in people’s eyes,” he said, “but I’m a better player than I was last year, so there’s no way my value has decreased.” -via South Florida Sun-Sentinel / October 9, 2023
Brady Hawk: I asked Tyler Herro earlier who & what he wants to prove this season: “To myself really. Playoff stuff, I really just want to be able to compete and show my stuff in the playoffs.” “Another leap that I took from my 2nd to my 3rd year, I want to take from my 4th to my 5th year.” -via Twitter @BradyHawk305 / October 7, 2023
“I’m not too sure,” Herro said when asked why he feels he’s become such a polarizing player. “If you look around the league, I’m right there with every young guy that they say is the next thing or whatever it is. As I get older, I don’t even pay attention to that [expletive]. I know my value, I know I’m one of them ones and I don’t need to say it. I’ll show you.” -via Miami Herald / October 7, 2023
