Tyler Herro does not shy away from taking potential game-winning shots. Most recently the 22-year-old shooting guard nailed a buzzer-beating three-pointer to give the Heat a win over the Jazz (126-123).
Herro’s teammates as well as his head coach Erik Spoelstra trust him and want the ball in his hands for the final shot. Victor Oladipo talked about this topic following the win.
Via Anthony Chiang of The Miami Herald:
“He always is going to give us a chance to win,” Oladipo said. “He has supreme confidence in his game. We have confidence in his game as well. In those moments, we put the ball in his hand because we’re confident he’s going to make the right decision. He just has to keep growing. He’s still young. I remember being that age, too. The whole world is like in front of you. But one thing about him is he works, so the sky is the limit because of that.”
This season Herro is averaging 21.4 points, 6.1 rebounds and 4.6 assists in 35.2 minutes per game.
