Starting on October 1, Tyler Herro will become eligible to sign a three-year extension worth nearly $150 million. Don't bother setting your calendar notification, though, because an instant agreement on a new contract with the Miami Heat would be shocking to see.
This situation is complicated. Giving Herro the bag now might close the door on Miami's more ambitious long-term goals. Then again, delaying a new deal could prove costly if the dynamic guard, who booked his first All-Star trip this past season, takes another step forward and skyrockets his price rate.
