Especially in a game where Herro was missed and the drama continued with Heat forward Jimmy Butler, the team went cold against Portland leading to a disappointing loss. The Heat's captain Bam Adebayo downplayed their offense being lost without Herro and accredited it to missing shots, though he acknowledges how crucial Herro is to their team.

As expected, the Miami Heat did not have a player voted into the 2025 NBA All-Star Game as a starter. New York’s Jalen Brunson and Cleveland’s Donovan Mitchell are the two Eastern Conference guards who were voted in as starters,

After missing his first game of the season in Tuesday's loss to Portland, Herro paced the Heat with nine assists and four three-pointers while falling a lone point shy of the team lead in the scoring column.
