NBA star Tyler Herro and his baby mama Katya Henry have split, and it's already getting nasty ... the exes are duking it out in court over custody and support after their bitter breakup, TMZ has learned. TMZ obtained dueling lawsuits filed by Tyler and Katya. The exes share two minor kids ... a daughter born in 2021 and a son born in 2023 ... so this is no simple split.

In his filing, Tyler asked the court to set up a parenting schedule and determine how much he should pay in child support. The Milwaukee Bucks star said he had been voluntarily paying his ex support since she gave birth. Tyler dismissed his case days later. Katya filed her own petition claiming she had been in a romantic relationship with Tyler for nearly 7 years. She claimed she had been the primary caregiver and made most of the decisions for the kids.

In her filing, Katya asked the court for primary custody. She said she wanted their kids to see Tyler, but due to his "historical conduct," which she "intentionally omitted" out of respect for him, "safeguards and parameters should be implemented on a temporary and permanent basis in order to ensure the safety and well-being" of the kids.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Tyler Herro said Saturday he isn’t dwelling on his contract status and what that means for his future now that he’s joined his hometown team. Herro, a Milwaukee-area native who graduated from nearby Whitnall High School in Greenfield, came to the Bucks in the trade that sent two-time MVP and nine-time All-NBA forward Giannis Antetokounmpo to the Miami Heat. The 26-year-old guard has one year remaining on his contract and could become an unrestricted free agent after the 2026-27 season if he doesn’t get an extension. “I’m not really worried about it right now,” Herro said while speaking at a youth basketball camp he was hosting. “It’s a new slate for me, for the coaches, really for the organization as a whole. I don’t think that needs to be a burden over anyone’s shoulders.”

“I probably have the biggest chip on my shoulder that I’ve had in my career, coming to Milwaukee,” Tyler Herro said. “We’ve been through a lot. Just being able to come here with a new slate, a brand-new team, a brand-new organization, a brand-new coaching staff. … We all have chip on our shoulders. Coach Jenkins himself has a chip on his shoulder, the guys who came in the trade with me. It’s not just about me. I think everyone on the team has a chip.”

“There ain’t no disappointment,” Adebayo said Tuesday of James choosing to sign with the 76ers over the Heat. “To me, you should always be happy for a person and their decision. He made a decision where he feels like it’s his best situation to win. And I feel like I’m a good friend of LeBron’s.” Then Adebayo, who declined to answer questions on his altercation with former Heat teammate Tyler Herro from earlier this month, laughed and revealed a message that he sent James after his decision to join the 76ers. “Like I told him in the message, I’m going to bust his a--,” Adebayo said with a smile. “So, it’s going to be an exciting season. I’m excited for the East. We got a whole new turnaround in the East. So, it’s going to be exciting this year.”

Carmelo Anthony on Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo altercation: "We was just in a bunker for eight years... We done went to war for eight seasons... The minute that you leave, you put that out there... So that told me that was brewing and what we were building wasn't real… so if you went out there to told somebody you don't even know this information, that told me that I got to approach you the way that I feel like is the best way because if you don't stop it right away, it keeps going."

As for the Adebayo-Herro incident in Las Vegas, where Adebayo confronted Herro about social-media posts and it got physical on a practice court a week ago during NBA Summer League, Riley said he wished it didn’t happen. “I didn’t like it,” Riley said, with neither the Heat nor the NBA taking further action.

Herro on social media had cast Adebayo as a limited offensive player and therefore overpaid. “I didn’t even know he was upset. Because I read it and I didn’t like it,” Riley said of the postings by Herro, who was sent out to the Milwaukee Bucks in the Antetokounmpo trade. “I didn’t like what I read and I think those kind of comments, and that’s what, as I say, social media has consequences, and so he got offended by it and I don’t think they had time to talk about it or anything like that, but it happened.” Riley added, “Both of them are very competitive men and I was sorry to see that it happened, and I was even more sorry to see that what happened with Bam.”

“We are human, and this is an amazing profession. We get to realize our dreams, but the business can be tough,” Spoelstra said. “And we developed strong relationships with those guys, and we poured into all of them. You know, Tyler came as a teenager, and we poured everything into him, and I think he did the same toward us, and he accomplished some terrific things over the course of those seven years, and then everybody else as well. Like those are relationships that you enjoy developing, and yeah, and developing time with those guys, you know, so that is the tough part of it. Obviously, we're excited about having Giannis here.”

The NBA will not punish Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo for punching former teammate Tyler Herro at a Las Vegas hotel and gym last week, a league spokesperson told The Athletic. “After discussing with the players involved and the NBPA, everyone would prefer to move on from this unfortunate circumstance, and no further action will be taken by the league,” the spokesperson said.
