Tyler Herro Doubles Over After Female Referee Makes Surprising Contact On The Line

In an unusual incident during Wednesday's matchup, Tyler Herro experienced an unexpected low blow, not from a rival player but inadvertently delivered by a referee. While preparing to take a technical free throw in the second quarter at the American Airlines Center, Herro found himself caught off guard when NBA referee Jenna Reneau passed him the ball. It struck him in a sensitive area, leading to a dramatic moment as the All-Star crumpled in distress.Reneau promptly approached to assess the situation after witnessing Herro's discomfort. Fortunately, the 25-year-old player recovered swiftly and managed to find humor in the mishap. However, the Miami Heat faced a challenging game, ultimately losing 108-118, despite Herro contributing 20 points, all scored in the first half, which drew some scrutiny from observers. Though he seemed to walk away unscathed, an ice pack surely provided some necessary relief.
