Former Miami Heat teammates Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro were involved in a physical altercation in Las Vegas on Friday that resulted in the center striking Herro, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania.
The fight took place at a practice court and stemmed from Herro's recent social media critique of the Heat big man, Charania adds.

Herro was dealt to the Milwaukee Bucks in late June as part of the trade that sent Giannis Antetokounmpo to South Beach. The one-time All-Star and Adebayo were teammates for the last seven years.
The Bucks are reportedly open to flipping Herro for additional assets. The 26-year-old was limited to 33 games last season due to injury but has averaged 19.5 points and a 45% field-goal rate for his career.
The Heat say "we are aware and not commenting" on the incident that happened between Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro today in Las Vegas.

Adebayo is a three-time All-Star and six-time All-Defensive selection. He's spent his entire nine-year career with Miami and is widely expected to form a dominant frontcourt partnership with Antetokounmpo.
