Miami Heat

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro hasn't played basketball publicly since Game 1 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals against the Milwaukee Bucks in April. 

That could change Friday night. 

Herro appeared to announce he was playing in the Miami Pro-Am in South Florida. Bam Adebayo, Josh Richardson and rookie Jaime Jaquez have already participated in the event this summer. 

Herro has said little publicly since his name began appearing in the speculation for trading for Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard. Herro is among the potential trade pieces in a package, which also includes Duncan Robinson, Nikola Jovic and Jaquez. 

Herro missed the run toward the NBA Finals last season after breaking his hand in the playoff opener against the Bucks. The fact the Heat made the Finals without their third-leading scorer led many to believe they can have success without him. 

Herro is just one season removed from winning the league's Sixth Man of the Year.
