One of the coolest things about John Calipari and the folks at Kentucky is they don’t just forget about their players that move on to the NBA.
Cal will show up at all sorts of games for his players on the next level. And whenever the players that leave the school come back, they’re always shown a ton of love.
We’ve seen it with John Wall, Anthony Davis, DeMarcus Cousins and so many other players that have gone through Rupp Arena.
The latest Cal alum in the spotlight is Tyler Herro. The Heat guard recently just won Sixth Man of the Year this season and is in the midst of a playoff run with his team.
Of course, Kentucky should show him some love for winning this award. And that’s cool! We absolutely love to see it as fans of the game.
What we don’t love to see, though, are terrible graphics showing that love. Kentucky probably could’ve kept this one in the chamber.
NBA 6th Man of the Year!!!

This graphic is just…weird. The tweet is kind of weird, too, honestly. The hashtag #6MOTYLER is just…that’s a bit much. And the flyer itself? It looks like a club flyer of some sort.
Y’all know the flyers I’m talking about. The joints that get stuck to your windshield because the party promoter sneakily stuck it there while you were in the grocery store. Yes. Those flyers.
That’s what this looks like. And that’s pretty hilarious. Twitter had a lot of fun with this one.
