Tyler Herro played just one season at Kentucky but the former Wildcat certainly made quite an impact with Big Blue Nation during his time on campus.
Of course, Herro originally committed to play for Wisconsin but eventually de-committed in order to play at Kentucky. He was named the 2019 SEC Newcomer of the Year after averaging 14 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.1 steals in 37 games last season with the Wildcats.
Although Herro is now with the Miami Heat, his legend still lives on in Kentucky. A fan captured a picture of a car with a customized license plate bearing his last name, which Herro reposted on Twitter.

Herro went on to become the 14th overall pick by the Heat and emerged as perhaps one of the top rookies in the 2019 NBA Draft class. In 47 games played with the Heat, Herro averaged 12.9 points, four rebounds and 1.9 assists prior to the season suspension due to the coronavirus pandemic.
