Heat's Tyler Herro could face quarantine after housemate tests positive for COVID-19

Heat guard Tyler Herro revealed after Miami's 105-104 win over Sacramento on Saturday night that he learned a housemate has tested positive for COVID-19

He said he got that news at halftime and was uncertain if he will have to quarantine because of possible exposure. His revelation came on the same night All-Star forward Jimmy Butler returned after missing 10 games because of the NBA's health and safety protocols established for safe play during the coronavirus pandemic. Butler scored a season-high 30 points after missing 12 of Miami's 18 games because of virus-related issues, as the Heat ended a five-game losing streak.
