Tyler Herro found himself more engaged in a brawl than basketball after the Miami Heat’s preseason victory on Tuesday… as his post-game discussion abruptly stopped thanks to a fight erupting among fans!!
This chaotic scene unfolded immediately after the home team claimed a narrow 120-117 victory over the San Antonio Spurs… and while the game held no significant stakes, certain fans treated it like a prime opportunity to throw punches.
Spotted the fight footage! Herro wasn’t joking 😳😳

What instigated the altercation remains a mystery… yet videos depict three men exchanging a flurry of punches in the Kaseya Center seats, while a woman seated one level up joined in, throwing punches at the men.
The confrontation endured for no less than 30 seconds before several law enforcement officers intervened… with one individual being thrown around and taken to the ground. Others were also quickly subdued.
Herro — who managed to score 14 points in the unimportant game — had a ringside view of the whole ordeal… and he momentarily set aside his postgame Q&A to comment on the incident.

“Apologies, I’m quite distracted by that fight happening up there,” Herro remarked after briefly discussing basketball. “This is insane.”
The interviewer then hastily ended their conversation… saying, “Well, let’s hope that calms down shortly. We’ll let you go, Tyler. Thank you for your time.”
Despite the commotion, Herro couldn’t tear his gaze away… keeping a close eye on the ruckus as he made his way toward the locker room.
C’mon, who doesn’t enjoy a little ruckus??
