The Bucks are looking to flip Tyler Herro for more trade assets after he headlined the Giannis Antetokounmpo trade return, but they should just hold on to him if no good offers are made. The Pistons initially seemed very interested in acquiring Herro, but could now be against the idea of giving up any substantial pieces for him. If Detroit doesn't want to send over at least one first-round pick or equivalent value, the Bucks should just keep Herro until they find a better offer.
Milwaukee can't waste Herro as a trade asset
Although Herro might not even end up with the best career of anyone in the Giannis trade package, he should still have a robust trade market in the short term. The Bucks have all offseason to move him, and can even extend that into next season if needed. So they don't need to jump on a mediocre trade offer from the rival Pistons now before any of the dust has settled.
Despite his deficiencies, especially on defense, Herro is still a younger guard who's already made an All-Star game off his creation and shooting. There are plenty of defensively-minded teams, including the Pistons, Timberwolves and Rockets, who could use such a piece to take the next step. Instead of giving him up right away to the first bidder, the Bucks must find a way to get those prospective teams (and others) bidding against each other to raise Herro's price.
Once they trade away Herro, the Bucks will practically lock in their final value from trading Giannis. After the years of drama and trade rumors that finally led to the Greek Freak being shipped out, the Bucks can't afford to receive a mediocre final return for him.
Herro can increase his trade value on the Bucks
Another important caveat is that Herro could have an important role on the Bucks roster to start next season. As an experienced ball-handler with 7 years of experience, Herro should have a lot to teach the Bucks' younger guards. He's only 26, but he's already been part of deep playoff runs and considerable regular season success.
Herro has also averaged at least 20 points per game in each of the last 5 seasons while maintaining good efficiency. That sort of scoring prowess doesn't grow on trees, but other teams may have forgotten Herro's skills due to injuries in the last year. If he can suit up for a few games with the Bucks and remind the NBA how good he can be, Herro can mend his trade value and the Bucks can get what they want by staying patient.
