The Miami Heat’s guard and forward, Tyler Herro, might get acquired by the Los Angeles Clippers this summer. Both the teams have been on the receiving end of the trades, which were the hottest topics of this NBA trade window, but both of them are yet to happen. The Clippers would like to move ahead from the trade saga and look for other options in the market.
The Heat had a brilliant season. They made it to the championship finals, where they lost to the Nuggets. They know that they do not have a lot to do, but some changes are required to keep things going while carrying on the momentum from the last season. There are speculations that they are going to trade off Tyler to help themselves in landing their summer target. The Clippers have shown interest in signing him since the deal involving their summer target is falling apart. Here is all the information you need about the trade between the Los Angeles Clippers and the Miami Heat involving Tyler Herro.
What would the Clippers offer in exchange for Tyler Herro?
The Clippers are expected to offer Paul George in exchange for Tyler Herro, Duncan Robinson and a 2026 first-round pick. Damian Lillard is expected to join the Heat, but the Blazers are expecting much more for their star point guard than last season’s finalist can offer. The Clippers are also waiting for the Sixers’ decision on James Harden.

This for ppl saying Tyler Herro don’t show up in the playoffs
2020- he was a rookie and 20 years old and was the second youngest player to ever score that much in a playoff game
2021- shortest offseason ever
2022- first time experiencing double teams, first kid on the way… pic.twitter.com/mYW27ZRa6h

Why would the Clippers like to sign Tyler Herro?
The Kentucky Wildcats product is pretty efficient at scoring and is a decent shooting guard. If mentored well, he can become a long-term solution for the Clippers at shooting guard position.
Will the Clippers send Paul away to land Tyler? The first-round pick looks lucrative. Will this trade go through? We’ll keep you updated.
