Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro underwent successful left ankle surgery on Friday and will miss the start of the 2025-26 season. The Heat announced that the timetable for Herro's return is eight weeks, putting Herro out of the lineup until at least mid-November.
According to the Miami Herald , Herro, 25, dealt with some discomfort in his left ankle while working out during the offseason. Herro received "platelet-rich plasma and cortisone injections" recently as the team hoped to avoid surgery with training camp set to begin on Sept. 30. However, the discomfort continued and surgery was viewed as the best option.
Last season, Herro averaged career highs in points (23.9) and assists (5.5), while shooting a career-best 47.2% from the field. Herro, who led the Heat in scoring, shot 37.5%
