scored 32 points and  came up with his first career triple-double to help the  extend their winning streak to three games.  Tyler Herro recorded 11 points (3-13 FG, 0-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 11 rebounds, 10 assists, and one steal in 40 minutes during Sunday's 106-98 victory over the Hawks.

Herro recorded his first triple-double of the 2022-23 campaign by showcasing his passing skills and securing 10 of his 11 rebounds on the defensive end.

“Just trying to impact winning,” Herro said. “Obviously, people know me for my scoring and my ability to create shots. The shot hasn't been falling but just continuing to impact the game in different ways. Honestly, scoring probably doesn't make [coach Erik Spoelstra] as happy as he does seeing me impact the game in other ways.”
