Why Is Herro Gonna Get 25ish mil When Sexton Is A Better Scorer And Both Suck At Defending. Herro Shouldn’t Be Making More Than 20mil Per.
The Collin Sexton contract in Utah starts at $16.5M and increases 5% in each season. The last year is $18.975M.
$70.95M fully guaranteed and can increase to $72.95M.
Sexton has $500K in unlikely bonuses per season.

Thats probably why the Heat haven’t offered him a new contract and are waiting until restricted free agency. Herro hasn’t shown he’s more than a bench scorer and they’re not gonna give him big money unless he proves otherwise.
Because Micky Arison is cheap and won’t pay tax.
That’s the honest answer – they can’t let Tyler walk for nothing and can’t risk him hitting restricted free agency where he might get a $30+M offer.
They need to overpay to extend him now to a number where we can get back under the tax dumping Robinson/Caleb/Victor (if he opts in).
The right management move if we didn’t have a cheap owner is to let him hit free agency because he probably won’t get even $25, but if just one garbage team offered a max we have to match and then we might not be able to get under the tax, or at least might have to lose the first rounders we have available to do so.
Sexton is also coming off from an ACL injury, I believe
Did you just say Sexton is a better scorer than Herro?
Sexton was coming off an injury and never played for a winning team and never dropped 40 in a playoff game.
Winning = money
Look at guys like timofey mozgov , Matthew dellavedova, jr smith, shump, all got ridiculously inflated contracts after the cavs finals run.
Same reason why duncan Robinson got a ridiculous contract.
Is 25 mill an overpay for herro? Maybe slightly, but your never going to get fair market value for a player who contributes on a championship contender.
Y’all are going to be so mad when someone offers Tyler close to a max just to snake us and I’m going to laugh
Get a life it’s not your money
Herro can and will pass the ball, unlike Sexton.
Herro is a better playmaker
