Tyler Herro was more focused on the fight than the hoops after the Miami Heat’s preseason win on Tuesday… because his postgame interview was abruptly interrupted due to a fight in the stands!!
The wild moment came just after the home team secured a 120-117 victory over the San Antonio Spurs… and despite the contest having no real meaning, some spectators decided it was a night worth fighting for.
I found the video of the fight. Herro wasn’t kidding π³π³

It’s unclear what led to the fight… but footage shows three guys throwing a series of punches at the Kaseya Center seats, with a woman in the row above also getting involved by attacking the group.
The fight lasted at least 30 seconds before a handful of cops intervened… with one of the guys being thrown and taken to the ground. Others were also quickly contained.
Herro — who had 14 points in the meaningless contest — had a front-row seat to the whole thing … and put his postgame Q&A on the back burner to gauge the action.

βIβm sorry, Iβm distracted by a fight upstairs,β Herro said after briefly talking about basketball. “This is crazy.”
The interviewer then interrupted the conversation… saying, “Well, I hope this ends here soon. We’ll let you go, Tyler. Thanks so much for your time.”
Herro still couldn’t look away… keeping his eyes on the incident as he headed to the locker room.
Hey, who doesn’t love a good fight??
