Miami Heat pick up fourth-year option on Tyler Herro for 2022-23

Tyler Herro is now under contract with the Miami Heat for two more seasons. The franchise recently decided to pick up the fourth and final year of Herro’s rookie contract.

According to Ira Winderman of the Sun Sentinel, the Heat elected to accept the $5.7 million team option on Herro, which will keep him in Miami through the end of the 2022-23 season unless he is traded before then. The former Kentucky Wildcat is eligible for a contract extension next summer.

Herro, 21, has played two seasons with the Heat after the organization drafted him 13th overall in the 2019 NBA Draft.
