- Herro, now with the Milwaukee Bucks following a trade involving Giannis Antetokounmpo, was present courtside at a summer league game but did not comment on the altercation.
- The Miami Heat acknowledged awareness of the incident but declined to comment, and the Bucks also issued no statement.
- The dispute was linked to Herro's Instagram direct messages questioning whether Adebayo's defensive effort justified his $60 million salary, shortly after Adebayo signed a $166 million extension with Miami.
