While most of the basketball world is glued to the NBA Finals, Miami Heat scoring machine Tyler Herro was busy with something else. Herro's girlfriend, Katya Elise Henry's 30th birthday was on Friday, and the couple took some time to celebrate the special day together.
The Heat guard and the fitness model spent the latter's birthday on what looks like a romantic meal while wearing matching outfits. A few snapshots of their celebration were posted to Herro's Instagram.
Aside from sharing images from his girlfriend's birthday, Herro also included a greeting in the caption.
"Baby girl," Herro said in his post. "Happy Born Day. Big dirty 30. I appreciate you for being you and being by my side throughout all this craziness. Keep being the light for Lil Harlem and Big ZZ. We love you!"

Tyler Herro's girlfriend teased her birthday celebration on Instagram
In a series of now-expired Instagram stories, Katya Elise Henry teased her followers about her birthday party. The fitness model posed in front of some balloons that spelled "Katya's Dirty 30."
However, since IG stories can only be viewed up to 24 hours after being posted, these images are no longer available as they were posted before her birthday celebration on Friday
So far, Katya Elise has not posted any images of her party to her IG. This is also the case for the Miami Heat guard, as the only images he has shared are from the intimate dinner the pair had together in matching all-white outfits.
What does the 2024 offseason hold for Tyler Herro?
The Miami Heat are likely going to try to make some moves to improve their roster following a disappointing end to their 2023-24 season.
At the moment, the Heat front office has not talked about including the 2022 Sixth Man of the Year in any deals to help improve the team and they have a few more seasons to assess how well he fits with the organization moving forward.
Herro is still under contract until the 2026-27 season, which gives the Heat plenty of time to assess if he can develop into their next superstar. This will likely be the case as Jimmy Butler is reportedly included in trade talks.
Unless the Heat want to begin a hard reset or unless a team offers a massive deal that includes an established star, Herro will likely start next season in a Heat jersey.
