Don’t know much about history.
Miami Heat star Tyler Herro said he “doesn’t consider in history” before 1950 and a few events after — including the moon landing and NBA legend Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game.
Herro, 25, was livestreaming with popular Twitch streamers Adin Ross and N3on last week when, about halfway through, a fan asked the 2019 first-round pick if he believed “Wilt [Chamberlain] could be top five in today’s league?”
“I don’t even know what Wilt looked like, played like,” Herro admitted.
Ross then asked Herro if he thought Chamberlain “dropped 100” while playing for the Philadelphia Warriors in a game against the Latest York Knicks in March 1962.
“Yeah,” the Kentucky alumni muttered, before questioning the favored streamer if he believed in history.
“You think that history is an actual thing?” Herro asked, to which Ross replied with a confident “yeah.”
“Nah, I don’t consider in history,” the NBA star said, shaking his head and leaning back in his chair. “No, I’m deadass.”
The shocking admission had each streamers stunned, with Ross asking Herro if he doesn’t consider things that happened 200 years ago.
“Hell no,” he replied.
“What in regards to the moon landing?” N3on asked.
“Nah, I don’t consider in that. I don’t consider in anything that happened before 1950,” Herro doubled down, leaving the streamers briefly speechless.
Herro’s commitment to believing history was fake led to N3on questioning if society had been lied to.
“Have we been f–king bamboozled?” the streamer joked.
The Miami Heat point guard then likely questioned when Christopher Columbus discovered America.
“For real, like, how can we know? When did he come to the land or whatever?” Herro asked. “They said 1492?”
N3on then identified that there’s “no way of really knowing,” to which Herro shrugged his shoulders in agreement.
Ross then identified that fans within the chat were calling Herro “based.”
Herro then read a comment from a fan within the chat saying he “never read a book,” and one other saying historians “documented it” throughout time.
“See, y’all consider that sh-t,” the purpose guard said of the people within the chat. “I don’t consider that sh-t! I never read that sh-t in class.”
The conversation then moved forward, but left fans wondering if Herro was serious about not believing in historical events or was messing around.
Chamberlain’s 100-point game — which still stands alone because the NBA record for many points ever scored by a player in a single game — was not televised however the record is well-documented and was verified that night by the Philadelphia Warriors’ game statistician, Harvey Pollack.
