Tyler Herro's Late-Game Error Costs Heat in 119-111 Loss to Bulls

In a critical late-season matchup, the Miami Heat lost to the Chicago Bulls 119-111, largely due to a poor decision by Tyler Herro in the final moments. With the Heat trailing by five points and a clear path to the rim, Herro opted for a contested three-pointer instead of an easy layup, a choice that ultimately cost Miami a chance to close the gap. Despite scoring 30 points and leading the team, his late-game decision was heavily criticized, with coach Erik Spoelstra acknowledging the need for better situational awareness. Herro himself reflected on the mistake, admitting he should have taken the layup. This loss further solidified the Heat's position as they cling to the 10th seed in the Eastern Conference, leaving them with two games left to secure a play-in spot. The game underscored Miami's struggles this season, including a disappointing record in close games.
