"The Miami Heat have recently hit somewhat of a hot stretch, going 6-4 in their last 10 games, which included a four-game win streak. Two of those wins came against quality opponents, the Denver Nuggets and the Detroit Pistons, back-to-back. The Heat haven't rounded the corner completely just yet, but they're showing signs of life, which can't be said for how December started for them."
"Bam Adebayo ties second all-time in Heat franchise for field goals made, but needs to increase his PPG before it's too late. Adebayo is averaging 17.3 points per game this season, a mark he hasn't sunk to since the Heat went on their bubble finals run during the 2019-20 season. While this year's numbers aren't as bad as his 2019-20 season (he averaged 15.9 points), they are his lowest since, and it's happening at the worst time for the Heat."
"Bam's field goal percentage is also down this season at 45.6%, compared to 48.5% last season. Going back to last year, Adeybayo has focused more attention on his three-point shooting, which has obviously played a role in his decreased shooting percentage. December was not kind to Adebayo, considering that to start the season, he was shooting well, but that shifted."
The Miami Heat have gone 6-4 in their last 10 games, including a four-game win streak with back-to-back wins over the Denver Nuggets and Detroit Pistons. The team is showing signs of life but remains short of fully turning the corner and will likely contend for a play-in spot. Norman Powell has emerged as a leading contributor. Bam Adebayo has struggled, averaging 17.3 points per game, his lowest since the 2019-20 bubble finals run. His field goal percentage has fallen to 45.6% from 48.5% amid increased three-point attempts. Adebayo ties second all-time in Heat field goals made but needs to raise his scoring.
