Tyler Herro was named the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year this season, as he impressed mightily off the bench for the Miami Heat. Herro has established himself as a scorer and someone with the ability to take the next step and become a true star in the league.
However, in recent news cycles, the mentions of Herro have been far from positive. There were several rumors about the Heat man earlier this month when his girlfriend and the mother of his child, Katya Elise Henry, shared things on social media that implied Herro had cheated on her.
With many concerned about what this meant for his relationship and expressing their disappointment in him for seemingly doing such a thing, the latest update from the Heat man suggests that nothing is wrong between him and Henry. Herro uploaded pictures to Instagram wishing her a happy birthday with a very sweet caption.
"Happy Birthday to the most beautiful girl in the world. Words can’t describe how much I appreciate you. Aint no tellin where we’d be at without you. You’ve been my rock holding it down for 2 years, I can’t wait to see what life has in store for us. Enjoy. Smile. More life to 28 biggggg babbyyyy."
This seems to be good news for fans of Herro, considering that he caught quite a bit of slander for his alleged cheating earlier. There is no way to tell what went down exactly between the star and his girlfriend behind the scenes, but it seems like the situation between them is quite good as of now.
Herro will have bigger things to focus on ahead of next season, having been challenged to come and earn the starting spot he wants in training camp by none other than Pat Riley. If he can continue his improvement, there is very little to stop Herro from establishing himself as a young star in the league.
