Tyler Herro, Instagram model having a blast inside NBA bubble

Tyler Herro’s quarantine love story with Instagram star Katya Elise Henry continues inside the NBA bubble.

On Sunday, the 20-year-old rookie and the Miami Heat punched their ticket to the 2020 NBA Finals, where they’ll face LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers beginning Wednesday night. Herro celebrated Sunday’s Game 6 win over the Boston Celtics with a courtside embrace from Henry.

Henry has long supported Herro’s dominant rookie season both on and off social media. Last week, the model cheekily responded to a fan as the Heat narrowly claimed Game 4 over the Celtics, 112-109.

“U better treat him nice tonight,” the follower wrote, to which Henry tweeted a gif of Rihanna with a large cigar in her mouth.

Henry and Herro were first linked in March at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Taking to Twitter, Herro decided to shoot his shot with, “@katyaelisehenry wyd.” She then responded, “quarantine n chill?”
