Heat Central: Tyler Herro Miami Heat related comments in his interview on Sirius XM - Taylor Jenkins camp is the same, if not more intense than Coach Spo - Jokes the Heat aren’t the only team with culture as ‘he was told’ - The Heat held a lockout day at this past deadline because they believed a Giannis deal was done - Pat Riley saw himself in Tyler Herro - Tyler was pushing for the trade to get done as well because he wanted a new start

“I’m just wondering if there’s anyone you’ve spoken to that’s been through a similar situation in terms of returning home to play or just what things you’re doing to kinda make sure it’s a benefit for you and isn’t as much of a distraction?” Herro: “I mean, I was in Miami. That’s the capital of distraction. So, I’m in Milwaukee now. So, I’m good. I haven’t really talked to anyone about it. I know how to hold myself accountable and be disciplined. I come to work and I work hard every single day. So, I’m not really worried about it.”

NBA star Tyler Herro and his baby mama Katya Henry have split, and it's already getting nasty ... the exes are duking it out in court over custody and support after their bitter breakup, TMZ has learned. TMZ obtained dueling lawsuits filed by Tyler and Katya. The exes share two minor kids ... a daughter born in 2021 and a son born in 2023 ... so this is no simple split.

In his filing, Tyler asked the court to set up a parenting schedule and determine how much he should pay in child support. The Milwaukee Bucks star said he had been voluntarily paying his ex support since she gave birth. Tyler dismissed his case days later. Katya filed her own petition claiming she had been in a romantic relationship with Tyler for nearly 7 years. She claimed she had been the primary caregiver and made most of the decisions for the kids.

In her filing, Katya asked the court for primary custody. She said she wanted their kids to see Tyler, but due to his "historical conduct," which she "intentionally omitted" out of respect for him, "safeguards and parameters should be implemented on a temporary and permanent basis in order to ensure the safety and well-being" of the kids.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Tyler Herro said Saturday he isn’t dwelling on his contract status and what that means for his future now that he’s joined his hometown team. Herro, a Milwaukee-area native who graduated from nearby Whitnall High School in Greenfield, came to the Bucks in the trade that sent two-time MVP and nine-time All-NBA forward Giannis Antetokounmpo to the Miami Heat. The 26-year-old guard has one year remaining on his contract and could become an unrestricted free agent after the 2026-27 season if he doesn’t get an extension. “I’m not really worried about it right now,” Herro said while speaking at a youth basketball camp he was hosting. “It’s a new slate for me, for the coaches, really for the organization as a whole. I don’t think that needs to be a burden over anyone’s shoulders.”

“I probably have the biggest chip on my shoulder that I’ve had in my career, coming to Milwaukee,” Tyler Herro said. “We’ve been through a lot. Just being able to come here with a new slate, a brand-new team, a brand-new organization, a brand-new coaching staff. … We all have chip on our shoulders. Coach Jenkins himself has a chip on his shoulder, the guys who came in the trade with me. It’s not just about me. I think everyone on the team has a chip.”

“There ain’t no disappointment,” Adebayo said Tuesday of James choosing to sign with the 76ers over the Heat. “To me, you should always be happy for a person and their decision. He made a decision where he feels like it’s his best situation to win. And I feel like I’m a good friend of LeBron’s.” Then Adebayo, who declined to answer questions on his altercation with former Heat teammate Tyler Herro from earlier this month, laughed and revealed a message that he sent James after his decision to join the 76ers. “Like I told him in the message, I’m going to bust his a--,” Adebayo said with a smile. “So, it’s going to be an exciting season. I’m excited for the East. We got a whole new turnaround in the East. So, it’s going to be exciting this year.”

Carmelo Anthony on Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo altercation: "We was just in a bunker for eight years... We done went to war for eight seasons... The minute that you leave, you put that out there... So that told me that was brewing and what we were building wasn't real… so if you went out there to told somebody you don't even know this information, that told me that I got to approach you the way that I feel like is the best way because if you don't stop it right away, it keeps going."
