With reports that the Miami Heat player is giving out copious amounts of gifts to multiple kids, Tyler Herro is supposedly bringing holiday cheer to a large number of people.
The 23-year-old allegedly distributed shoes, clothing, and autographed jerseys in addition to the gift cards.
Herro, who is currently in his fifth NBA season, just made a long-awaited comeback after suffering an ankle injury. He hasn’t played since November 8 but has scored 53 points in two games combined.
Along with Bam Adebayo, who had been sidelined due to a hip ailment, he made his comeback on Monday. After losing to the Minnesota Timberwolves in that game, the Heat turned things around on Wednesday, defeating the Orlando Magic.
They will play the Atlanta Hawks at home on Friday before hosting the Philadelphia 76ers on Christmas night with a 16–12 record.
Since his return, Herro has played in every game and leads the Heat in scoring. He suffered a sprained right ankle in the first quarter of a game against the Memphis Grizzlies in early November, which caused him to miss 18 games.
The University of Kentucky product has obviously stuck with the Heat despite being the focus of trade rumors throughout the previous offseason. Despite not being a part of any trades for Bradley Beal, Damian Lillard, or Jrue Holiday, he is currently Miami’s top scorer with 23.6 points per game in 10 games.
With his recent injury keeping him out of seven games, Adebayo is second on the team with 22.0 points per game, while Jimmy Butler is third with 21.5 points per game.
Given that the Heat have struggled with injuries all season, Herro’s comeback is greatly anticipated. Due to a left calf tightness, Butler is actually predicted to miss his sixth game of the season and second consecutive on Friday against the Hawks.
With play starting on Thursday, Miami holds the No. 7 seed and has remarkably managed to stay competitive in the Eastern Conference playoff race.
The Heat should be in a positive mindset going into the holidays and ready for even greater success as the 2023–24 NBA season progresses with Herro spreading some kindness.
