Tyler Herro is arguably one of the most celebrated NBA players. After winning the recent NBA Three-point contest, he has been all over the headlines. However, he was spotted taking over the Internet for another interesting reason. Many felt that the player looked a lot like Eleven from Stranger Things and some other characters.

Some fans claimed to have noticed Tyler Herro's resemblance with Eleven, played by Millie Bobby Brown. A user shared a post featuring a collage of the two, and captioned it:

"That little girl from Stranger Things grew up. Feel old yet?"

However, this isn't the first time someone has mentioned it.

A user mentioned in their X-post:

"Why does Tyler Herro remind me of Eleven from stranger things......."

On the other hand, another user felt that he looked like Machine Gun Kelly without tattoos.

Another user remarked on similar lines.

"I knew Tyler played eleven in stranger things…"

Some justified the NBA win with a Stranger Things reference:

"come on! was she really able to hone in those powers to hit a 30 foot 3-ball on the run."

It turns out that many have been waiting to highlight the claims for a long time:

"Why do I see the resemblance as clear as day lmao."

Some fans not only supported but appreciated the OG for voicing several others' thoughts through the post.


Another user spoke hypothetically:

"Imagine if bros number was 11..."

It turns out that some X-users have already seen enough:

"Somebody shut the damn internet down."

Another netizen remarked:

"I've thought the same thing ever since he buzzed his hair."

An X-user questioned quirkily:

"No way. That's not her..is it?"

Some are yet to decipher the joke:

"Stop kidding man, this ain’t same person."

An NBA fan referred to Tyler Herro's Miami Heat jersey:

"Nope, that's 11. Prolly, 14's sister."

NBA fans unexpectedly crossed paths with Stranger Things fans on this X-post. As they await another season of the series, many look forward to Tyler Herro's upcoming matches.
