Heat guard Tyler Herro on his development: “Honestly, I haven’t even thought about what’s next. I’m just continuing to learn every single game. Just different coverages, other ways to effect the game besides scoring. Try to play-make for my teammates and just be more efficient night in and night out. Just continue to try to work at it. Whatever comes with it, that’s what comes with it.”
