An MRI revealed a costochondral issue with Herro's ribs that is expected to sideline him for the entirety of Miami's five-game road trip, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
The Heat have yet to release a timetable, but the earliest possible return for Herro is set at Jan. 28 for the moment. With this news, the Heat are likely to lean more on Norman Powell and Jaime Jaquez in the short term, as well as Pelle Larsson and Nikola Jovic.

Heat's Tyler Herro: Not traveling with team
Rotowire
Herro (rib) is listed as out for Monday's game against the Warriors and did not travel with the Heat ahead of their five-game road trip, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Herro is dealing with a right rib contusion and will miss his second straight outing Monday. While there's a chance he could rejoin the team in Sacramento on Tuesday, it doesn't bode well for his availability that he isn't traveling with the Heat. With Herro unavailable, Kasparas Jakucionis and Dru Smith are candidates for increased minutes.

Heat's Tyler Herro: Drops team-high 21 in Indiana
Rotowire
Herro closed with 21 points (8-19 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 32 minutes during Saturday's 123-99 loss to the Pacers.
The 21 points led the Heat on the night, as only three of his teammates even scored in double digits. It was Herro's first start since Dec. 9, and just his second game back from a toe injury that cost him 11 contests. He's still looking for his rhythm from long range, having gone 2-for-12 on three-point attempts since getting back on the court, and on the season he's averaging 22.1 points, 5.8 boards, 2.6 assists, 2.1 threes and 0.9 steals in 31.5 minutes a game.

Herro racked up 17 points (7-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds and three assists over 29 minutes during Tuesday's 122-94 loss to the Timberwolves.
Herro, who hadn't played since Dec. 9 due to a right big toe contusion, came off the bench in his return to the rotation Tuesday. Despite the loss, Herro was a bright spot, and his fantasy managers will be hoping he puts the toe issue behind him.

Heat's Tyler Herro: Listed questionable for Tuesday
Rotowire
Herro is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves due to a right toe contusion.
Herro was available for Sunday's win over the Pelicans but ultimately didn't see the floor, which still implies he's on the cusp of returning to game action. If the star guard is unable to give it a go, Pelle Larsson and Nikola Jovic (groin) should have a clearer pathway to minutes.

Rotowire
Herro (toe) will be listed as "available" for Sunday's game versus the Pelicans, but he's not expected to play, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Per Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald, head coach Erik Spoelstra explained the decision to list Herro as active without the intention of playing him Sunday: "He's been putting in a lot of work.

It's unclear if Herro will be able to play Tuesday in Minnesota, but he's getting close. Pelle Larsson (ankle) should get some extended run Sunday with Herro and Jaime Jaquez (ankle) unavailable.

Herro has appeared in just six of 35 regular-season games due to injury, averaging 23.2 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.5 threes and 1.0 steals over 31.5 minutes per contest.
