Watch: Tyler Herro wins game for Heat with clutch, off-balance 3-pointer

The Miami Heat have to be feeling good after their 110-107 win over the Sacramento Kings. Tyler Herro, the NBA's reigning Sixth Man of the Year has to be feeling even better.

Tied at 107 with a scrappy Sacramento team, Herro got the ball coming out of the inbounds and found himself in a position to make the game-winning shot.

Credit to Herro, it was far from the perfect position to make the shot. It was a clutch play, but it was also an extremely hard play to make. He had to navigate a switched screen and some sticky defense from Terrence Davis. The Sacramento guard was able to catch up with Herro along the 3-point line and contest the initial look, but Herro got Davis up in the air with a beautiful pump fake that set him up with an open, but tough, shot fading to his right.

The shot, like many of Herro's three-pointers, was right as rain, which secured Miami its second-straight win.

Herro, starting for the Heat, finished the game with 26 points, including 10 in the fourth quarter alone. He's averaging 17.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 2.6 assists so far this season in about 16 minutes per game.
