Heat's Tyler Herro Enters NBA's Health and Safety Protocols, Out vs. Trail Blazers

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro entered the NBA's health and safety protocols and will miss Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Kyle Lowry will also miss the game because of personal reasons, Yahoo Sports' Chris Haynes reports.

The 21-year-old, who primarily plays off the bench for Lowry, is in the midst of his best season in the NBA. He is averaging 20.7 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game while shooting 43.0 percent from the field and 38.8 percent from deep.

With Victor Oladipo still recovering from injury, the Heat have relied on Gabe Vincent and Max Strus in Herro's absence this year.
