NBA fans found another reason to crack jokes after Tyler Herro showed up at the Miami Heat Gala with his wife, Kaya Elise Henry.
The couple attended the 16th Miami Heat Gala dressed in white. Herro wore a white vest layered over long sleeves, while Henry’s look stood out for all the right reasons. It didn’t take long, though, for the internet to lock in on Herro instead.
For NBA fans, the outfit felt like open season.

@ACLPlayer26 added, “He went from Wisconsin to South Beach and found the first 6 he seen walking around …….”
Others focused less on the location and more on the fit itself.
@ttmamba868 joked, “Dude looks like he’s about to play cricket.”
The timing didn’t help. With Herro’s name constantly popping up in trade rumors — especially with Miami pushing hard to land Giannis Antetokounmpo — some NBA fans felt like the gala might have doubled as a soft goodbye.
There’s a growing belief that Herro is one of the key pieces Miami would have to move if a blockbuster deal actually materializes. If that’s the case, this could end up being one of the last times he’s publicly tied to the franchise.
“Please keep Herro and send another young player to the Bucks”: NBA fans in denial after rumors see Tyler Herro moving to Milwaukee
As speculation ramps up, NBA fans are clearly split on what should happen next.
Herro has now missed his 10th straight game due to injury, and his situation is getting harder to ignore. He’s entering the final year of his contract next season, and between availability concerns and roster uncertainty, nothing feels guaranteed.
@Pardz9454869582 begged the front office, saying, “im sad if he traded to the bucks. please pat keep Herro and send another young player to the bucks.”
Others are already bracing for the worst.
@xosamanthabanos wrote, “I fear we have.”
Not everyone is holding on emotionally.
@layup24_7 took a different angle, saying, “All praise to the man for his contribution over the years, but I really hope so. It’s been time.”
Right now, NBA fans are stuck in limbo — joking, speculating, and arguing — while waiting to see whether Tyler Herro is still part of Miami’s future, or just the next name moved in pursuit of something bigger.
