NBA all-star says he ‘doesn't believe in history' before 1950 or the moon landing

Heat star Tyler Herro may be a sharpshooter on the basketball court, but he was way off the mark with his latest take. The Miami swingman said on a recent livestream that he 'doesn't believe in history' before the year 1950 and also several events after. Herro was appearing on a Twitch stream with Adin Ross and N3on last week when the all-star was asked if hoops legend Wilt Chamberlain would be a top player in the NBA today. 'I don't even know what Wilt looked like, played like,' Herro admitted. Ross then asked Herro if he believed that Chamberlain 'dropped 100' during a game in March 1962 while playing for the Philadelphia Warriors. While Herro responded 'yeah,' it got something stirring inside him and the former first-round pick then asked the streamer if he believed in history. 'You think history is a real thing?' Herro asked, to which Ross confidently replied 'yeah.' 'Nah, I don't believe in history,' Herro said to the surprise of the streamers. 'No, I'm deadass.' The pair, who clearly were taken aback by the revelation, asked Herro if he believed things that happened 200 years ago. 'Hell no,' he replied. 'What about the moon landing?' N3on asked. 'Nah, I don't believe in that. I don't believe in anything that happened before 1950,' Herro said, leaving the Ross and N3on speechless as they processed what was said. 'Have we been f***ing bamboozled?' N3on joked before they tried to dig deeper into Herro's belief — or lack thereof. The hosts then probed Herro, asking him if he believed in the flat Earth theory before getting back to historical events. 'For real, like, how do we know? When did he come to the land or whatever?' Herro asked. 'They said 1492?' Desmond Bane move was right for Magic, but Kevin Durant trade would be wrong for Raptors Pacers, like Panthers, might have big regrets about blowing Game 4 of finals N3on quipped that there's 'no way of really knowing,' to which Herro shrugged his shoulders in agreement. After fans responded in the chat that Herro had 'never read a book,' the Heat star responded by essentially confirming the statement. 'See, y'all believe that s***,' he said of the chat comments. 'I don't believe that s***! I never read that s*** in school.' Herro's statement quickly went viral, with many fans questioning if he truly didn't believe in historical events, or if he was just joking on the stream.

NBA star Tyler Herro claims he doesn't believe in ‘history': 'How do we know?'

Don't know much about history. Miami Heat star Tyler Herro said he 'doesn't believe in history' before 1950 and some events after — including the moon landing and NBA legend Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game. Herro, 25, was livestreaming with popular Twitch streamers Adin Ross and N3on last week when, about halfway through, a fan asked the 2019 first-round pick if he believed 'Wilt [Chamberlain] would be top five in today's league?'

Ross then asked Herro if he thought Chamberlain 'dropped 100' while playing for the Philadelphia Warriors in a game against the New York Knicks in March 1962. Advertisement 'Yeah,' the Kentucky alumni muttered, before questioning the popular streamer if he believed in history. 'You think history is a real thing?' Herro asked, to which Ross replied with a confident 'yeah.' 'Nah, I don't believe in history,' the NBA star said, shaking his head and leaning back in his chair. 'No, I'm deadass.' Advertisement The shocking admission had both streamers stunned, with Ross asking Herro if he doesn't believe things that happened 200 years ago. 'Hell no,' he replied. 'What about the moon landing?' N3on asked. 'Nah, I don't believe in that. I don't believe in anything that happened before 1950,' Herro doubled down, leaving the streamers briefly speechless. Advertisement Herro's commitment to believing history was fake led to N3on questioning if society had been lied to. 4 Herro said he 'doesn't believe in history' before 1950 and some events after — including the moon landing and NBA legend Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game.

'For real, like, how do we know? When did he come to the land or whatever?' Herro asked. 'They said 1492?' N3on then pointed out that there's 'no way of really knowing,' to which Herro shrugged his shoulders in agreement. 4 Astronaut Buzz Aldrin Jr. poses for a photograph beside the US flag on the moon during the Apollo 11 mission in July 1969.

AP Advertisement Ross then pointed out that fans in the chat were calling Herro 'based.' Herro then read a comment from a fan in the chat saying he 'never read a book,' and another saying historians 'documented it' throughout time. 'See, y'all believe that sh-t,' the point guard said of the people in the chat. 'I don't believe that sh-t! I never read that sh-t in school.' Advertisement The conversation then moved forward, but left fans wondering if Herro was serious about not believing in historical events or was messing around. Chamberlain's 100-point game — which still stands alone as the NBA record for most points ever scored by a player in a single game — was not televised but the record is well-documented and was verified that night by the Philadelphia Warriors' game statistician, Harvey Pollack.

NBA rumors: Insider details what Miami Heat are and aren't willing to give up in Kevin Durant trade

A top NBA insider has shed new light on what the Miami Heat are and aren't willing to part with in a potential trade for future Hall-of-Famer Kevin Durant. 'They could talk themselves into not trading Herro. And a nucleus of Herro, plus Bam [Adebayo], plus KD, plus whatever young players are left over can get us somewhere. And they have [Andrew] Wiggins, [Terry] Rozier salary combo, plus picks to trade that sort of satisfies a lot,' ESPN NBA insider Zach Lowe said in a recent edition of his podcast. Advertisement 'The key there would be they're going to have to give up one of [Nikola] Jovic or [Jaime] Jaquez in any kind of trade. I just don't see Phoenix doing it without some carrot of a maybe semi-interesting young guy.' Related: Miami Heat viewed as 'plausible' landing spot for 6x All-Star Yet, while the Heat have some interesting trade chips, Lowe did explain the one player Miami will 'try like hell to hang on to.' And that desire could lead to trying to add the Brooklyn Nets to a potential blockbuster deal for the 15-time All-Star. 'Kel'el Ware is the one that Miami will try like hell to hang on to. And that's where the [Nic] Claxton, 'can we rope in Brooklyn as a third team' kind of comes in. Instead of giving up, Ware,' said Lowe. Advertisement The Phoenix Suns were a huge and expensive disappointment this past season. Despite having Durant and fellow All-Star Devin Booker, the team wasn't even good enough to reach the NBA Play-In Tournament this spring. The organization listened to trade offers on Durant in February. And is a lock to move the legendary player this summer. However, there will be a solid number of suitors for his services this summer. Which will boost Phoenix's asking price. The Suns have been unable to fill DeAndre Ayton's void since he was traded last year. So asking for Ware in trade talks is very likely.
