Miami Heat: Tyler Herro rated as second highest rookie to outperform draft slot

The Miami Heat exited last season with the disappointing taste of not making the playoffs in their mouths. This was obviously tasted by the players and coaches, but it was apparently tasted by team president Pat Riley and the rest of the decision-makers as well.

This Miami Heat team was bereft of shooting, scoring in general, and overall star power as last season closed, and that would be more emphasized this season with the retirement of Dwyane Wade following last season. This was something that the beginning of the offseason saw immediately addressed as Pat Riley did whatever was necessary to go out and land prized free agent Jimmy Butler.
