Tyler Herro poised to join Nets in massive three-team trade, rumors igniting NBA fans' excitement
Rumors of Tyler Herro's potential move to the Brooklyn Nets in a massive three-team trade have set the NBA community abuzz.
Reports from SNY TV's Ian Begley indicate the Heat have reached out to the Nets, along with the Trail Blazers, to establish a partnership. In this scenario, Herro would find himself donning the Brooklyn jersey.
According to reports from Shams Charania of The Athletic and Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports, the Nets could potentially facilitate a three-team trade that would send Lillard to the Heat, solidifying their status as strong contenders for his acquisition.
However, a straight swap of Tyler Herro for Damian Lillard, possibly with the inclusion of another player like Duncan Robinson, seems unlikely. The Trail Blazers would undoubtedly demand more, potentially including draft compensation, an area in which the Heat currently lack significant assets.
Apart from Herro, the Heat lack enticing trade pieces that could fetch them the required draft compensation, making a three-team trade an attractive option. This would allow Miami to offload Kyle Lowry's hefty $29.6 million expiring contract, presenting an opportunity for a fresh start.
The lingering query centers on whether or not Portland will require a high-profile player in the trade, and which players the Nets would be open to including in this intricate and thrilling situation.
