Wisconsin native Tyler Herro was recently traded to the Milwaukee Bucks, and in the process, took a shot at the Wisconsin Badgers.

During a Bucks vs. Miami Heat summer league game, Jimmy Jackson wanted to hear Herro's answer as to why he decommitted from Wisconsin.

Remember, Herro ended up playing for the Kentucky Wildcats from 2018-19 en route to being the No. 13 overall selection in the 2019 NBA Draft.

"I mean, I can keep it simple as... if I didn't decommit, I probably wouldn't be on the Bucks right now," Herro said. "So I had to make a business decision at the time to go to Kentucky, play for Coach Cal [John Calipari] and now you see where we're at with it now,"

"I'm excited to be home. Leave that in the past. I'm representing the city and state like no other, so let's do it."

For the first time in his career, Herro is set to play for an NBA team not named the Miami Heat.

Herro's name has been making the rounds recently, not just from being included in the Giannis Antetokounmpo trade, but also for getting into a physical altercation with former teammate Bam Adebayo, according to ESPN's Shams Charania.
