• Heat's Bam Adebayo: Logs five steals

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Adebayo produced 12 points (5-21 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, six assists, one block and five steals over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 115-112 loss to the Suns. Adebayo struggled offensively, making fewer than 25 percent of his attempts from the field en route to his fifth game with 12 or fewer points this season. He made up for the offensive inefficiencies on the defensive end, compiling his fifth career five-steal game. Through seven games, Adebayo is averaging 14.9 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.4 blocks across 32.4 minutes.

• Heat's Bam Adebayo: Fills stat sheet Monday

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Adebayo logged 16 points (7-15 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-5 FT), nine rebounds, five assists, four blocks and three steals across 36 minutes during Monday's 111-110 loss to Sacramento. The Heat came up short Monday in a thrilling contest, but Adebayo made his presence felt on both ends of the court with a dominant effort -- he recorded at least three tallies in each of the five major categories while shooting at an efficient clip from the floor. Adebayo has endured a relatively slow start as a scoring weapon, as he's surpassed the 15-point mark in just two of his six contests, but the star big man will continue to deliver value in other areas. Given his history, the 27-year-old should eventually figure things out on the offensive end.

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Adebayo closed with 32 points (12-24 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 14 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 31 minutes during Saturday's 118-98 win over the Wizards. Adebayo hadn't scored more than 12 points over the first four games of the regular season, but he dominated Saturday and finished as the leading scorer for the game. He was 0-for-8 from three going into the contest, but he managed to connect on three triples as he worked on expanding his range during the Olympics and offseason. Adebayo will look to carry his momentum into Monday's clash against Sacramento.

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Adebayo posted nine points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 7-10 FT), five rebounds and one assist in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 116-97 loss to Orlando. Adebayo played just 26 minutes during the Heat's regular-season opener, as the game started to get out of hand in the second half. While the 27-year-old big man seems set to take more than his 0.6 three-point attempts per game from last season, he was unable to connect from downtown against Orlando. Adebayo tied Jimmy Butler for a game-low minus-30 point differential.
