"Adebayo, 28, is averaging 19.9 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists on 45.2 percent shooting, including 34.0 percent from 3-point range and 86.1 percent from the free-throw line. In his last fully healthy game against the Los Angeles Clippers on Nov. 3, he scored 25 points with 10 boards, four dimes and two steals on 10-of-18 shooting. Adebayo has made a 3-pointer in 19 straight games that he's completed the game."
"There's no stressing how important Adebayo is to the Heat. When he's on the floor, they have a plus-11.3 NET Rating compared to a minus-1.9 NET when he's off. He's also one of two bigs on their roster; they have zero depth behind him. Miami was also getting murdered in the rebounding department without him. He's not only their best player at boxing out, but he's arguably their best out of area rebounder."
Bam Adebayo returns from a six-game absence caused by a toe sprain and will play Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors. He averages 19.9 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists on 45.2 percent shooting, with 34.0 percent from three and 86.1 percent on free throws. In his last full game he had 25 points, 10 rebounds, four assists and two steals on 10-of-18 shooting. Adebayo has hit a three in 19 consecutive completed games and provides the Heat with a significant net-rating boost, primary frontcourt rebounding and minimal depth behind him.
