Tyler Herro is now ramping up his workouts and is expected to return to the Miami Heat at some point during the 2023 NBA Finals, per TNT’s Chris Haynes. He could be back in Game 3 of the championship series on next Wednesday.

Herro has been progressing well and was seen shooting the ball recently prior to Conference Finals’ Game 7 of Heat against the Boston Celtics as part of his ramp up activities. 

He notably sustained his right hand fracture during Game 1 of their first-round set against the Milwaukee Bucks. Herro underwent a surgery and the Heat announced accordingly that he will miss a minimum of six weeks.

With Herro set to be back soon, this can’t be more relieving for the Heat as they look to continue their Cinderella run. As the Nuggets boast an overwhelming offense powered by both Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, having the hotshot guard for a scoring shootout will be tremendous to lessen the load of Jimmy Butler.

Game 1 of the 2023 NBA Finals is set to commence on Thursday.
