With Game 5 of the 2023 NBA Finals set to be on the horizon for the Miami Heat, Tyler Herro will still not be able to play according to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald.

Herro hasn’t received a medical clearance to play yet despite the solid progress he has shown and the amount of participation he is doing on team sessions and practices.

The hotshot guard has been out for Miami since their first-round opener of the playoffs against the Milwaukee Bucks after breaking his right hand. He eventually took a surgery to address it.

Amid the absence of his heavy offensive production, Miami blitz their way in history as the second eight-seeded club to reach the NBA Finals.

It is yet to be seen if Herro will see himself back in the Heat lineup, as the Denver Nuggets are holding a commanding 3-1 series lead against them in the title stage and are one win away from capturing their first ever championship
