Herro made 10 triples out of 15, scoring 41 points and grabbing 6 rebounds on the night.

With this performance, the guard added himself to NBA history, becoming just the fourth Heat player to hit 10 three-pointers in a single game. Additionally, he became the first player in NBA history to hit at least 9 triples in consecutive nights.

Stephen Curry and James Harden had hit 9 threes in consecutive games before but Herro was the first to do it in two straight days. The night before, Herro made 9 three-pointers in a win against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

"I didn't know it was the record until last night when I hit nine, and they said I was one short," Herro said after the match. "I didn't have any intention of coming in to tie the record but I was just trying to get threes up. I think shooting more threes is helping."
