Kevin Hart took a random shot at Tyler Herro just ahead of the 2025 NBA All-Star Game.

At mid-court ahead of the night’s first game, Hart made a joke at Herro after he had little to say when asked for a comment pregame.

“I feel good. We’re ready to roll,” Herro said shortly after Kenny Smith wanted to know how he felt coming into the game. “You came in, you gave us a word of encouragement, and we’re ready to roll tonight.”

“As you can tell from Tyler’s, uh, wrap-up, not a lot of camera, not a lot of camera speaking in that guy’s career right here,” Hart then said back through his own laughter. “Yeah, just, he’s here to shoot. He’s not here to talk.”

Herro, the lead guard of the Miami Heat, is making his second-ever appearance at NBA All-Star Weekend with him having earned his first-ever honor as an All-Star.

Herro began the weekend by winning the NBA Three-Point Contest with 24 points as he beat out Buddy Hield (Golden State Warriors) and Darius Garland (Cleveland Cavaliers).

Now, with Team Kenny eliminated with a 42-31 loss to Team Chuck, Herro scored six points, which tied a team-high, by making two of his four attempts from three, including one heave of a make off the dribble, while also having one assist.

As for the regular season, Herro is having a career-best season at 23.9 points (46.5% FG, 38% 3PT), 5.5 assists, and 5.5 rebounds while making 3.7 triples per game. The points and assists are team-highs this year for the Heat. The scoring is also top-twenty while his three-point makes are fifth in the association this season.

Herro might not be as outspoken as some players in the league, especially with it being his debut tonight as an All-Star. Hart was quick to call him on it, though, with the comedian making a joke about him on-air tonight.
