The Miami Heat lead the NBA in blowing double-digit leads. Their top scorer, Tyler Herro, has attempted the most shots in clutch time. He has the worst clutch FG% of any player with at least 50 attempts. Why do the Spoelstra and the Heat continue to play Herro ball? #NBA #Basketball #NBASky #Heat - ThreadSky

The Miami Heat lead the NBA in blowing double-digit leads.

Their top scorer, Tyler Herro, has attempted the most shots in clutch time. He has the worst clutch FG% of any player with at least 50 attempts.

Why do the Spoelstra and the Heat continue to play Herro ball?

That is jarring. It really bugs be when teams change the whole game plan when it matters most.

Who currently on the heat performs better in clutch time?

stepbackstats.bsky.social•15 days ago

Bam Adebayo is 34/64 (53.1%).

WOAHH this is sick

Curious the numbers through say Dec? Definitely a roster construct thing - until Wiggins, very little self creation on that roster; for PU3s, this remains true. And these numbers definitely are apparently lately, lotta close games and he hasn't been good late. But I feel thru December, he was good

Through December Herro was 15/43 (34.9%). Still pretty bad, but you're right that. He's gotten worse. In 2025 he is 14/56 (25%).

Sorry to keep pestering you with questions. Converted to TS% that is? This guy loves his tough 3s, off the bounce or screen. Then curious how that TS% through Dec looks next to others in clutch. This is partly why I think Spo trusts him so much + pretty sure his clutch numbers were better yrs past

I'll give you eFG% since we aren't using free throws here:

This season:
2024: 48.8%
2025: 40.0%

Ah, there we go :) looking at clutch stats per Inpredictable, 48.8% eFG% is good, definitely above average. 40% not so much. I'm also attaching numbers from two years ago, note consistent high cltch2 number, these are like win or lose shots. Spo trusts him late and he's historically done well.
