"The Miami Heat were one of the worst offensive teams in the league last season. Without Tyler Herro in the lineup for at least the first month of the regular season, the painful reality is that they may be rough on the eyes to watch on the offensive end of the floor. And that can't lead to good things for the Heat's hope to remain afloat without their All-Star guard during the first month of the season."
"You'd imagine that the Heat acquired Powell with the idea that he'd probably come off the bench to lead the second unit, and to maybe make some spot starts here and there. But, in many ways, if the Heat are going to survive the first month of the season without their All-Star guard, they're going to need Powell to have a great start to his Heat tenure."
The Miami Heat finished among the league's worst offensive teams last season and struggled to score consistently. Tyler Herro will miss at least the first month of the regular season, further weakening the offense and making games difficult to watch. The team improved slightly after Jimmy Butler's departure and Andrew Wiggins' arrival but still ranked 19th offensively. The Heat posted a 110 offensive rating and went 0-5 in the five games Herro missed last season. Norman Powell represents the primary variable whose scoring and efficiency could determine Miami's ability to survive Herro's absence, though adaptation to a new system and teammates introduces uncertainty.
