Heat guard Tyler Herro on Caleb Martin: "Caleb is just being Caleb. He's so dynamic, especially at the four. He's really a two or three but he's playing the four. To be able to put him there and be a trigger guy for us, and being able to attack out of close outs, it's hard to keep him in front. Now, he's shooting the three pretty well. He's just making plays for us."
