Miami Heat star Tyler Herro has been linked to countless trades over the past few weeks. Most believe he will be moved in some iteration of a swap involving Portland Trail Blazers star, Damian Lillard.
It has gotten to the point where, according to people close to him, he himself believes he will inevitably get dealt.
In the meantime, amid all the Lillard rumors – the 23-year-old is apparently putting in major work in the gym.
This week photos emerged of Herro looking incredibly jacked.

The NBA community is a vocal one, so understandably folks had a lot say about the imagery.
They immediately flocked to social media to weigh in.
Did not expect a Herro Hulk-out.

The dumbest thing th Heat can do is trade him without knowing how he would’ve performed had Spo given him the chance https://t.co/X5wJpt6Z75

Big picture, it does definitely feel like Herro’s days in Miami are numbered. And frankly, that may be best for all parties involved.
Without Herro’s ball-stopping ways, the Heat went from play-in squad to an NBA Finals run in 2022-23.
He is a very talented offensive threat, but not the right guy for where this particular Heat team currently finds itself.
Off the court, based on the way Herro and his girl act, clearly Miami suits them. But on the court, some of his rumored potential landing spots like the Utah Jazz and Brooklyn Nets seem like better fits.
What an offseason for Trevor Lawrence’s wife. https://t.co/E0U2C4BlZl

One way or another, this issue with Herro will get resolved.
Either the Heat will trade him or they won’t. But he likely won’t have to deal with this uncertainty for much longer.
Where will Herro ultimately be playing come the beginning of the 2023-24 NBA season? Time will tell.
