NEW BERLIN, Wis. -- Milwaukee Bucks guard Tyler Herro said Saturday he isn't dwelling on his contract status and what that means for his future now that he has joined his hometown team.
Herro, a Milwaukee-area native who graduated from nearby Whitnall High School in Greenfield, came to the Bucks in the trade that sent two-time MVP and nine-time All-NBA forward Giannis Antetokounmpo to the Miami Heat.
The 26-year-old guard has one year remaining on his contract and could become an unrestricted free agent after the 2026-27 season if he doesn't get an extension.
"I'm not really worried about it right now," Herro said while speaking at a youth basketball camp he was hosting. "It's a new slate for me, for the coaches, really for the organization as a whole. I don't think that needs to be a burden over anyone's shoulders."
Herro's future has been the subject of speculation ever since news broke in June that he was heading to Milwaukee in the Antetokounmpo trade. The Bucks also acquired Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kel'el Ware, Kasparas Jakucionis and draft capital that included the rights to 2026 No. 13 pick Nate Ament.
