A contract extension agreement between the Miami Heat and star shooting guard Tyler Herro isn’t likely to occur, according to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst.

“Tyler Herro is coming off an All-Star season and is definitely interested in extending with the Heat, but there haven’t been substantive talks to his point and a deal is doubtful, sources say,” Windhorst reported Friday.

Long-term extensions for Heat wings Andrew Wiggins and Norman Powell are “unlikely,” per Windhorst. Powell could sign a short-term deal instead, though.

Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald previously reported that Miami would be open to extending Powell, who was acquired in a July 7 trade with the Los Angeles Clippers, if he can start the 2025-26 season on a high note.

Herro still has two years remaining on a four-year extension worth $120 million that he signed in Oct. 2022. He’ll earn $31 million for the 2025-26 season before receiving $33 million for his 2026-27 campaign, via Spotrac.

Herro exceeded expectations for the Heat last season, averaging a career-high 23.9 points and 5.5 assists per game. His 47.2 field-goal percentage also represented a new personal-best mark and the sharpshooter connected on 37.5 percent of his triples.

Concerns from Miami regarding a new extension could stem from Herro’s ensuing playoff performance, as he averaged just 17.8 points per game on 41.5 percent shooting as the Heat were swept by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round.

He’ll also be sidelined for the start of the upcoming regular season after undergoing foot surgery on Sept. 19.

Wiggins could take on a larger offensive role in Herro’s absence, as he enters his first full season in Miami after he was acquired in the Feb. 6 trade that sent Jimmy Butler to the Golden State Warriors.

Wiggins averaged 19.0 points and 4.2 rebounds to go along with 3.3 assists per game on 45.8/36.0/73.1 shooting splits after the change of scenery.

SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)…

SHOW SUMMARY:PWTorch editor Wade Keller presents the weekly Flagship edition of the Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Podcast with guest co-host Jason Powell from ProWrestling.net and the Pro Wrestling Boom podcast. They discuss these topics:

• Reaction to WWE confirming today that John Cena’s final match will ve at Saturday Night’s Main Event in December and who are possible opponents that make sense for that major spot.
• Assessing Cena’s list of opponents so far including how notable it is that only one was under 39 years old (Logan Paul) so far. Is there still time for Cena to step outside his “comfort zone” and actually give back by giving a “big moment” or a boost to someone younger than, say, 35 years old?
• Thoughts on the storyline and the acting in the Asuka-Iyo Sky-Kairi Sane storyline
• Where is the Jey Uso-Jimmy Uso-Roman Reigns story headed
• Reaction to Cody Rhodes needling Seth Rollins over whether he is in favor of and in the loop on the Paul Heyman-Brock. Lesnar dynamic
• A look at AEW Dynamite’s 6th Anniversary show tomorrow night
• Should AEW even “try” next week against a big NXT show in a rare Tuesday head-to-head battle
• Assessing Ricky Saints becoming NXT Champion.
• And more (including reaction to Kirill Kaprizov signing a record contract to remain with the Minnesota Wild for eight additional years).

IN THE VIP-EXCLUSIVE AFTERSHOW

• A look at the TNA Bound for Glory PPV line-up including if Santana has shown signs he’s a good top babyface to build around as champion, the odd shake-up in the Women’s Division, the Hardy vs. Team 3D and the electric atmosphere in the Minneapolis Armory, a compelling X Division match, and more.
