Reports: Bam Adebayo punches ex-Heat teammate Tyler Herro

Mandatory Credit: Rhona Wise-Imagn Images Bam Adebayo punched his former Miami Heat teammate Tyler Herro during a brief altercation in Las Vegas on Friday, ESPN and The Athletic reported.
Both the Heat and the Milwaukee Bucks, Herro’s new team, confirmed to The Athletic that they were made aware of the situation, but they declined further comment.
Reports said the exchange took place on a practice court inside a hotel in Las Vegas, where NBA Summer League games are being held. Herro was with an AAU team that he runs. Adebayo approached him on the court and, after Herro said something to his ex-teammate, punched him in the “head area,” per ESPN.
Security at the court escorted Herro away, Adebayo also left on his own and Las Vegas police officers were not summoned to the scene, The Athletic reported.
Not long after the incident, but before knowledge of it became public, Herro participated in an interview with Amazon Prime Video ahead of a game between Miami’s and Milwaukee’s summer league teams.
“It’s all love. It’s all love in Miami,” Herro said. “I’ve seen a couple of the guys, and the coaching staff. Chris Quinn, Spo (Erik Spoelstra), front office guys. We are all good in Miami and just the opportunity for both sides to reset, get a fresh start and we’re both super happy for this.”
However, last week a series of direct messages between Herro and an anonymous fan leaked, showing Herro taking an apparent swipe at Adebayo’s defense.
“You should get paid 60 million to be a top tier defender on some nights? I’m just wondering,” Herro allegedly says in the messages.
The Bucks dealt Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bobby Portis to the Heat for Herro, Kel’el Ware, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kasparas Jakucionis, three first-round draft picks, a second-rounder and a pick swap.
Adebayo, 28, has played his full nine-year NBA career with the Heat and was teammates with Herro for the past seven seasons. Adebayo broke out for 83 points on March 10 against the Washington Wizards, surpassing Kobe Bryant for the second-highest scoring individual performance in NBA history.
Adebayo, who signed a three-year, $166 million extension with Miami in June 2024, had 20.1 points and 10.0 rebounds per game in 73 games this past season. Herro, 26, averaged 20.5 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.1 assists but played just 33 games due to injuries.

Lucas Glover cruises through another round, leads ISCO by 2
Lucas Glover tees hits off the 5th tee during the second round of the 2026 PGA ISCO Championship at the Hurstbourne Country Club in Louisville, Kentucky. July 10, 2026 Lucas Glover must be feeling deja vu.
One week after going bogey-free through two rounds at the John Deere Classic to take the outright lead, Glover has replicated the feat at the ISCO Championship following his second-round 64 Friday at Hurstbourne Country Club in Louisville, Ky.
Glover sits at 13-under 127, two shots clear of Chan Kim (65) and Steven Fisk (66). Aaron Wise and France’s Jeong Weon Ko are tied for fourth at 10 under after identical 65-65 starts to the week.
Glover, 46, is in ideal position to grab the seventh PGA Tour victory of his career and the fourth he’s had since 2021. He did not finish the job last week, tying for third while Chris Gotterup won the John Deere.
“Pretty similar (rounds). I putted very similar,” said Glover, who birdied three holes on each nine. “So I was probably in the fairway a little more today. The holes were in the high spots because of the weather, couple places it was hard to get it close. It was a little bit nasty this morning when we started, had some rain through the first few holes.
“Yeah, played nice, solid, no bogeys through two days. Need to keep that up. Yeah, scores are going to be low so keep the pedal down.”
While Fisk won the Sanderson Farms Championship last fall for his maiden PGA title, Kim has not broken through on the tour yet. He made his living with eight Japan Golf Tour wins between 2017 and 2022, and he’s won twice on the Korn Ferry Tour.
The Hawaii native birdied five times in an eight-hole stretch from Nos. 7-14.
“I do love this golf course, I think it suits my game very well,” Kim said. “I played well the first two rounds last year and I slipped a little bit the last two rounds, but golf’s hard. Hopefully this year I can kind of redeem myself here and play a little better on the weekend.”
The winner last time around was William Mouw, and his competitors will be watching out for him Saturday and Sunday after he turned in a 7-under 63 — tied for low round of the day with Canada’s Taylor Pendrith — to climb into sixth place at 9 under.
Mouw, 25, made three putts from 20 feet or longer in a stretch of four birdies from Nos. 14-18. He had a simple explanation afterward.
“Jokingly, I put my putter in hot water last night and it stayed hot,” Mouw said. “I woke up with it hot out of the water and stayed hot all round.
“I told my caddie I was going to do it and put it in some boiling hot water. Funny enough, it just stayed hot all day and I’m going to do it tonight too.”

Spurs sign Victor Wembanyama for reported 5 years, $252M

Mandatory Credit: Geoff Burke-Imagn Images Hours after he told Spurs fans he was “here to stay,” Victor Wembanyama signed a multiyear contract extension with San Antonio that ESPN reported is for five years and $252 million.
The deal, which is worth $50.4 million per year, is the NBA’s maximum rookie-scale extension and carries a player option for the fifth season.
“Spurs family, I’m here to stay,” Wembanyama tweeted Friday. “Whatever it takes.”
The Spurs, who did not confirm financial details, published photos and videos of Wembanyama inking his contract.

Wembanyama has been viewed as one of the elite young players in the sport going back before the Spurs selected him No. 1 overall in the 2023 NBA Draft. The 7-foot-4 center with an 8-foot wingspan has averaged 23.4 points, 11.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 3.5 blocks per game through three NBA seasons (181 games).
The Defensive Player of the Year and a first-time All-NBA first-team selection, Wembanyama finished third in MVP balloting this season after putting up career highs of 25.0 points and 11.5 rebounds per game. He is a career 34.2% 3-point shooter who has made 2.2 triples per game, and he’s led the league in blocks in every season since his arrival.
The Spurs fell to the New York Knicks in five games last month in Wembanyama’s first NBA Finals. The current pieces around him include guards De’Aaron Fox, Stephon Castle, Devin Vassell and Dylan Harper, and the Spurs recently signed veteran forward Tobias Harris.

White Sox reinstate All-Star 1B Munetaka Murakami from IL

Mandatory Credit: Matt Marton-Imagn Images The Chicago White Sox reinstated rookie slugger Munetaka Murakami from the 10-day injured list on Friday.
Prior to striking out in his first at-bat Friday night against the Athletics, Murakami was named to the American League All-Star team as a replacement for injured Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton and announced as the eighth and final participant in the Home Run Derby.
The 26-year-old first baseman missed the previous 35 games with a strained right hamstring. The White Sox posted a 17-18 record during his absence, but pulled into a share of the AL Central lead with the Cleveland Guardians.
At the time of his injury on May 29, Murakami was tied for the American League lead in homers (20) and RBIs (41).
Murakami is batting .240 with a .938 OPS and 43 runs scored in 57 games this season with the White Sox.
Chicago optioned infielder Jacob Gonzalez, 24, to Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding transaction.
The 2023 first-round pick made his MLB debut on May 31 and batted .244 with two homers and 17 RBIs in 30 games.
