The underdogs of the Eastern Conference, Miami Heat have been one of the most consistent teams in the NBA over the past few years. While they last won the title in 2013, they have played a major role in the Playoffs since. However, Heat fans have been craving for the team to add another banner in the rafters. Adding to the desperation, guard Tyler Herro might be one among the fans. Herro’s recent answers to bizarre questions continue to go viral on social media.

Players can go to any extent and do whatever it takes to win a championship, but Herro’s consideration of getting a tattoo of Jimmy Butler has led the fans to question the young star. However, Herro plays an important role for the team and his performances are paramount for a run at the championship.

After confirmation from the point guard, the reporter further asked, “Where on your body would you get that face?” Herro hilariously responded, “Wherever you can’t see it, but I would still get it”. After giving it more thought, the 6’5 guard decided where he would put the tattoo. Herro added, “You said I could get it anywhere ? I’ma get it on the bottom of my foot”, mocking his teammate. The reporter, in denial, responded, “That’s messed up, you’d be stepping on Jimmy’s face”. However, Herro has his eyes set on the championship and he replied back, “Yes and we won a championship.”
