Time is coming to mid-to-late September, and it is getting closer and closer to the beginning of the new NBA season. After a summer, the competitive landscape in the league has undergone considerable changes.

Some teams are ready to welcome the arrival of the new season after this offseason. However, at this critical stage, the Miami Heat suffered a sudden blow. Their backcourt star Herro suddenly had surgery, which undoubtedly caused the Heat to suffer a sudden blow.

On September 19, according to ESPN famous reporter Shams Charania, sources revealed that Miami Heat All-Star player Taylor Herro underwent left foot surgery and is expected to miss the early game of the 2025-26 season.

Last season, Herro played 77 games for the Heat, averaging 23.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 0.9 steals per game.

The Heat have maintained the idea of ​​competing for the championship in recent seasons. They made a deal between Butler and Wiggins, and exchanged Powell from the Clippers this summer, which can be regarded as some improvement and supplement to the team's strength. However, what Heat fans did not expect was that before the new season started, Hero first lost money, which was really unfavorable.

Regarding Herro's surgery, let's take a look at the mainstream view of the fans:

- Why do you do it after the regular season starts, and what do you do during the offseason?

—What have I done before? The suffocation has started in more than a month. You have gone to surgery!

——I dreamed of Amen at night, and ran away and fell a big one.

—Powell's chance comes again. The team's top scorer has given way again. Show it!

In fact, Herro's appearance rate is not high among the Heat. Last season was the first time he had attended more than 70 games in his career. In the first five seasons, Hero averaged 56.8 games, with an attendance rate of less than 70%. Now he has begun to return to his absence mode.

Heat's record last season was actually relatively average, with 37 wins and 45 losses, and was swept by the Cavaliers 0-4 in the first round of the playoffs. Originally, the team hoped that Herro could help the Heat improve and break through in the new season. His backcourt combination with Powell, plus the frontcourt combination of Wiggins and Adebayo, this lineup is still somewhat competitive in the East.

Since Herro has undergone surgery and his return date is not yet determined, the Heat can only rely more on Powell. Powell's scoring ability is still good and he is known as "Bokobe". However, in a good game, Powell usually needs to have the top stars to attract firepower. For example, when he was in the Clippers and when he was partnering with Harden, Powell's data was very beautiful, but when he led the team alone, the data was much worse.

If the Heat still has no improvement in their mid-season record, then the Heat may start the trade again. It is said that the Heat intend to use Wiggins as bargaining chips to complete the team's upgrade. For Heat fans, this is probably a relatively struggling stage.

I hope Herro can return healthy as soon as possible. After all, the Heat just gave him a big contract, and if he starts to recover from his injuries with the money, he will still be a bit disappointed.

Fan friends, what do you think?
