Before the start of this season Tyler Herro was given a four-year $120 million contract extension by the Heat. This amount could grow up to $140 million based on incentives. However, the 22-year-old point guard says that incentives do not motivate him at all.

Via Miami Herald:

“I’m not motivated by my incentives,” Herro, 22, said ahead of the Heat’s season opener against the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday night at FTX Arena. “Obviously, I’m still a motivated player. But my incentives don’t really motivate me at all, to be honest. I’m just going to continue to play my game and whatever comes with that comes with it.”

Last season Herro averaged 20.7 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists in 32.6 minutes per game coming off the bench. He scored 23 points in the season opening loss against the Bulls (116-108).
