LAS VEGAS — Minutes after speaking at length to South Florida media Friday about how his time with the Miami Heat will be remembered with fond memories, former Heat guard Tyler Herro left Thomas & Mack Center offering only, "My only comment is no comment."
Between his interview with the team's beat writers and that exit, word came out about an altercation between Herro and former Heat teammate Bam Adebayo earlier in the day at the hotel that several teams are utilizing as a practice facility during the Las Vegas NBA Summer League.
An NBA source confirmed the incident to the Sun Sentinel. Herro left the arena hastily with his girlfriend at his side through a rear, players-only entrance.
According to ESPN, "Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro got into a physical altercation in Las Vegas on Friday in which Adebayo struck Herro. The altercation occurred at a practice court in a Las Vegas hotel this morning, sources said — starting when Adebayo approached Herro about comments the guard made critiquing the center on social media after their seven-year run in Miami ended."
In the wake of Herro being dealt to the Milwaukee Bucks, Herro posted on social media a listing of how poorly Adebayo ranked in one shooting metric, with other comments surfacing from a private Herro chat about Adebayo's offensive inefficiencies in regard to the maximum contract extension Adebayo received from the Heat, a three-year agreement that begins this coming season.
