Bam Adebayo A Full Participant In Practice
5 months agoMiami Heat center Bam Adebayo (hip) fully practiced on Monday. Left hip soreness has kept Adebayo out of Miami's lineup for two of the past three games, but his presence at Monday's session bodes well for his ability suit up for Tuesday's In-Season Tournament game versus the Milwaukee Bucks. If all goes well at morning shootaround as well as pregame warmups, Adebayo figures to be good to go for Tuesday's action. The Heat should provide an official injury designation later on Monday. The 26-year-old four-time All-Defensive big man is returning second-round fantasy numbers this season, averaging 22.4 points, 10.7 boards, and 2.4 combined steals plus blocks in 34.4 minutes over 14 games. Adebayo's prospective return would bounce Thomas Bryant from head coach Erik Spoelstra's starting five, and perhaps downgrade Nikola Jovic to DNP-CD treatment.
