This is almost always the first question that Erik Spoelstra must answer at a press conference, the day before the matches of these Finals. Before Game 5, a journalist thus jokes by explaining to the Heat coach having lost with the short straw and having to question him on the question…
“There is no new information. He is doing another training session today (yesterday). I probably won’t have anything for you tomorrow morning and then we don’t have a shootaround” replied the coach.
Victim of a broken hand during the first game of the playoffs, Tyler Herro is therefore still listed as absent for Game 5 of the Finals, when he hoped to return for Game 3 of the series, or even Game 2.
A setback that must be difficult for the shooter to live with, and which does not help the Heat, who would really need an additional shooter now that Max Strus, Caleb Martin and Gabe Vincent have entered the ranks.
