NBA star Tyler Herro claims he doesn't believe in 'history'

Don’t know much about history.

Tyler Herro, a key player for the Miami Heat, mentioned that he does not give much importance to events that occurred before 1950 or some significant ones that happened afterward. These include the moon landing and the legendary NBA moment when Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 points.

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?”

“I don’t even know what Wilt looked like, played like,” Herro admitted.

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.

“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.”

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.

Herro’s commitment to believing history was fake led to N3on questioning if society had been lied to.

“Have we been f–king bamboozled?” the streamer joked.

The Miami Heat point guard then likely questioned when Christopher Columbus discovered America.

“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.

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.”

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.
