Tyler Herro injury updates

Update: Herro has officially been ruled out.

Herro is officially listed as out for Sunday’s contest, but there’s a possibility he could still be upgraded ahead of the game. Game 3 was reported as Herro’s target to return to the court, and that still looks to be the most likely spot where he does come back.

With Herro out, Max Strus and Duncan Robinson will continue to get solid minutes in the backcourt. Strus is hoping to bounce back after going 0-10 from the floor in Game 1, while Robinson went just 1-6.
