On Wednesday evening, the Miami Heat will host Jamal Murray and the Denver Nuggets in Florida.
For the game, the Heat will remain without 2022 6th Man of The Year Tyler Herro.
This will be his ninth straight game out of action.
Before the Heat play the Nuggets, head coach Erik Spoelstra met with the media and provided the latest update on Herro.
Via Anthony Chiang of The Miami Herald: "Erik Spoelstra says Heat guard Tyler Herro is making progress, but there's still no timetable for his return.
Spoelstra on Herro: "He's doing everything he needs to do.""

Spoelstra on Herro: "He's doing everything he needs to do."
Herro has been one of the team's best players this season and is averaging 20.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.4 assists per contest while shooting 43.7% from the field and 39.9% from the three-point range.
However, he missed nearly the entire 2023 NBA playoffs and has only appeared in 36 games this season.

Despite playing without Herro for a large portion of the season, the Heat are the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference with a 35-29 record in 64 games.
They are only 2.5 games behind the New York Knicks for the fourth seed.
