The Milwaukee Bucks shocked the NBA world this offseason when they traded Giannis Antetokounmpo to the Miami Heat for a package centered around Tyler Herro and Jaime Jaquez Jr. Now that the dust is settled a bit, the Milwaukee Bucks may have a tough decision to make on the future of Tyler Herro with the team. The biggest issue moving forward will be his contract. Tyler Herro is in the final year of a four-year, $120 million contract where he's set to earn $33 million in the 2026-27 NBA season. After that, the 26-year-old guard is set to become an unrestricted free agent when he's 28 years old. With that in mind, the Milwaukee Bucks are going to have a very tough decision when it comes to Herro. Does the team decide to give Herro a legitimately large contract and build around him, or do they start building around younger players like Ryan Rollins, Brayden Burries, or Nate Ament? In all honesty, paying Herro a contract that's even higher than his current one would be a really rough move for the Bucks' future. If the Bucks are serious about their youth movement, then looking to trade Herro could be the most optimal decision the team could make. At the same time, the Bucks could want to give Tyler Herro a chance to play for his hometown of Milwaukee. Herro is only 26 years old and is a hometown hero who was legitimately excited about playing for Milwaukee. Last season, Herro averaged 20.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 4.1 assists on 48/38/92 shooting from the field. He was an All-Star in the 2025 NBA season and has the legitimate potential to do it again. It's worth noting, though, Herro only played 33 games last season and 42 games in the 2024 NBA season - he only played 70+ games in one season throughout his entire career. If the Bucks do pull the trigger on a Tyler Herro trade, the purpose should be to get draft picks and young assets. With the way the Eastern Conference is currently composed, there's no way the Bucks can legitimately compete for a title right now. Any moves being done have to be executed with the intention of 4-5 years in the future. That's also why it's tough to see Tyler Herro fit within the Milwaukee Bucks' timeline. The Bucks will have to weigh their options carefully and consider what's best for the team's future. Tyler Herro's performance on the court will also play a significant role in the team's decision-making process. As the season progresses, it will be interesting to see how Herro performs and how the Bucks' front office responds to his play. The future of Tyler Herro with the Milwaukee Bucks is uncertain, but one thing is clear: the team has a tough decision to make. The Bucks' decision on Herro's future will have a significant impact on the team's roster and overall direction. Only time will tell what the Bucks decide to do with Tyler Herro, but for now, his future with the team remains uncertain.
