After the trade became official, Herro made a heartfelt post<\/a> to Instagram.<\/p>\n

He wrote: \u201cSeven years. It\u2019s hard to put into words what this city has meant to me. When Miami drafted a 19-year-old kid out of Kentucky, they believed in me before I\u2019d proven anything. Together, we experienced just about everything this game has to offer. Two trips to the Finals. Deep playoff runs. Becoming an All-Star. The highest highs, the toughest moments, and every lesson in between. Through every challenge, every expectation, every rumor, and every setback, I always believed in one thing: put your head down, go to work, and represent the name on the front of the jersey the right way. Every time I stepped on the floor, my goal was to help bring another championship to Miami. This city gave me more than a basketball career. It gave me a place to grow up. I became a man here. I became a father here. I built lifelong relationships here. Miami became home. To Spo, Pat, Micky, the entire organization, my teammates, the coaches, trainers, equipment staff, arena staff, and everyone who poured into me over the last seven years\u2014thank you. Thank you for believing in me, pushing me, challenging me, and helping shape the player and person I\u2019ve become. And to the fans\u2026 Thank you for riding with me. Through every big shot, every playoff run, every injury, every rumor, and every season\u2014you showed me love I\u2019ll never forget. Whether you cheered for me in the arena, wore my jersey, or simply believed in me, I felt it. I\u2019ll always be grateful for that support. As excited as I am for this next chapter back home in Milwaukee, a part of me will always belong to Miami. Miami didn\u2019t just shape my career. It shaped my life. Thank you for everything. \u2014 Tyler\u201d<\/p>\n
