Tyler Herro has blossomed into a star over his seven years as a member of the Miami Heat, but is he overrated?

Greg Swartz of Bleacher Report seems to think so, as he recently included Herro in a list of the NBA’s most overrated players this season.

Tyler Herro named one of the most overrated players in NBA 

While Herro is a potent scorer, his one-dimensional nature and inconsistent availability landed him on the list. 

“Is it possible to be an All-Star and Sixth Man of the Year before turning 26 and still be overrated? In Tyler Herro's case, yes. … Herro isn't a max-caliber player or anywhere close to it. Miami made it to the Finals in 2023 after Herro broke his hand in Game 1 of the playoffs. The team looked far better without him, which should have been a sign," Swartz wrote. 

“… Having reached 70 games in a season once in his seven-year career (including just 11 so far this season), Herro has become overrated.”
