Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo allegedly struck guard Tyler Herro in full view of an AAU basketball team, the New York Post reported Wednesday, July 10, 2026.
The story states that Adebayo threw a punch at Herro during an unspecified gathering attended by youth players. No additional details about the location, the reason for the altercation, or possible injuries were provided.
Both Adebayo, 28, and Herro, 26, have been key contributors for Miami since entering the league. The Heat had not issued a public comment on the reported confrontation at the time of publication, and it was unclear whether the NBA or the team planned to investigate.
The Post did not indicate whether any formal discipline was immediately considered. Witness accounts described the scene as surprising to the young athletes who were present.
