Mon May 30 202211:27Bam Adebayo Posts Double-Double
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo turned it around after a rough outing in Game 6. Adebayo finished with 25 points and 11 rebounds across 46 minutes during Sunday's Game 7 against the Boston Celtics. He finished as the second-highest scorer on the team behind Jimmy Butler. Sadly, it wasn't enough as the Heat dropped this contest and will head home. The biggest factor was that Miami wasn't able to get much from their bench in this series.

Thu May 26 202200:33Bam Adebayo Scores Team-High 18 Points Against Boston
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo scored a team-high 18 points during the playoff loss to the Boston Celtics on Wednesday night. He also added 10 rebounds and one block. Jimmy Butler struggled, so Adebayo did all he could to keep his team in it. However, it wasn't enough, as Miami is now just one loss away from elimination. Throughout this series, the 24-year-old has been hit or miss, with the big man scoring 10 points or less in three of the five contests. Still, he's always in the running for DFS consideration, even more so if Robert Williams III (knee) can't suit up for Game 6 on Friday.

Wed May 18 202211:24Bam Adebayo Records Just Four Shot Attempts In Game 1
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo fired up just four shots in the team's victory over the Celtics on Tuesday despite logging 37 minutes, his second highest total this postseason. While Adebayo recorded just 10 points, his presence was most impactfully felt on the defensive end, where he notched four blocked shots. Despite his multi-category upside, seeing Adebayo get fewer shot attempts than P.J. Tucker and Dewayne Dedmon (the latter of whom played just 11 minutes) is concerning for his prospects across the remainder of the series. Corralling Robert Williams III and Al Horford (health and safety protocols) will be paramount to Miami advancing, it just may not result in Adebayo delivering above-average returns on his DFS price tag.

Thu May 12 202223:29Bam Adebayo Drops 10 Points On Thursday
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo finished with 10 points during Thursday's playoff win over the Philadelphia 76ers. With the victory, Miami advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals. Adebayo also had eight boards, and while he didn't do much on the offensive end, he got after it defensively by accumulating two steals and a block. The 24-year-old didn't have the best series against Philly, although Joel Embiid can take some of the credit for that. However, with the Bucks or Celtics on tap for the next round, Adebayo has an excellent chance to get back on track.

Sat May 7 202200:32Bam Adebayo Struggles In Game 3
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo finished with only nine points during the Game 3 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. He didn't do much anywhere else either, as he added just three boards, two steals, and an assist. After averaging 23.5 points and 10.5 rebounds throughout the first two games of the series, the return of Joel Embiid (concussion, face, thumb) put Miami's big man in check. As long as Embiid remains patrolling around the basket moving ahead, Adebayo may continue to struggle, although his upside remains higher than most.

Mon Apr 25 202210:45Bam Adebayo Goes For 14 And Eight In Game 4 Win
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo helped the team lock up a 110-86 win over the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday, giving the team a 3-1 lead in the series. He shot 6-for-11 from the floor and 2-for-3 from the line and scored 14 points while also adding eight rebounds and an assist. The 24-year-old has been dealing with a quad contusion, but he's been able to play through the injury throughout the series. His production has been low so far as he's averaging just 10.5 points and 7.3 rebounds per game, down from his regular season averages of 19.1 points and 10.1 rebounds per game.

Sun Apr 24 202218:49Bam Adebayo Officially Active Against The Hawks
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (quadriceps) will suit up for Game 4 of the postseason series against Atlanta. The big man has been battling a quad contusion. However, he was never in any real danger of missing this one. Nonetheless, Adebayo has struggled mightily throughout the playoffs, averaging only 9.3 points. While his decreased DFS rostering cost is enticing, fantasy managers may want to pump the brakes before putting him in their lineup, primarily with his recent struggles on the scoring end.

Sat Apr 23 202223:55Bam Adebayo Dealing With A Quad Contusion
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (quadriceps) is questionable ahead of Sunday's playoff matchup versus Atlanta. The 24-year-old is currently dealing with a quad contusion. However, he's continuously played through the injury, so it's unlikely he misses this pivotal contest, especially since there's a chance Kyle Lowry (hamstring) won't play. However, Adebayo has averaged just 9.3 points, 7.0 boards, and 1.3 steals throughout the postseason thus far, so there's a chance the ailment may be bothering him more than he's leading on, making him a risky DFS option.

Tue Apr 19 202219:10Bam Adebayo Playing In Game 3
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (quadriceps) will play in Game 2 of the playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks. The big man had been riding the injury report throughout Tuesday because of a left quad contusion. However, he is ready to go and will be posted at his usual five spot. Adebayo had a rough night at the office in Game 1, finishing with only six points. Yet, there's a good chance he'll turn things around, especially since the Hawks remain without Clint Capela (knee).

Sat Apr 16 202214:46Bam Adebayo Clears Protocols, Set To Play Sunday
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (health and safety protocols) has been given the green light to return to action ahead of Game 1 of the Eastern Conference playoffs vs. Atlanta after having cleared the league's health and safety protocols. Adebayo missed the regular-season finale last Sunday due to the protocols, but the lay-off isn't set to affect the big man, who has said he'll suit up to begin the postseason. Maybe most relevant to his DFS appeal is the murky status of Hawks center Clint Capela (knee), whose absence could elevate Adebayo's upside. The 24-year-old combined for 45 points in two regular-season matchups against the Hawks.

Fri Apr 15 202214:37Bam Adebayo Remains Absent
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo is still away from the team as of Friday. The big man has until Sunday to clear the league's health and safety protocols. Otherwise, Dewayne Dedmon and Omer Yurtseven will be asked to fill the void during Game 1. Often times, head coach Erik Spoelstra favors Dedmon in his rotation changes. However, Yurtseven normally outperforms Dedmon on the court. Fantasy managers will have to wait and check back later this weekend for another update.

Wed Apr 13 202214:53Bam Adebayo Misses Wednesday’s Practice
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo was unable to take the floor for Wednesday's practice as he remains in the league's health and safety protocols. Adebayo missed the regular season finale due to the protocols and will need to be cleared in order to suit up for Game 1 of the Eastern Conference playoffs Sunday. If Adebayo is ultimately unavailable, Miami has a few different ways it could go: P.J. Tucker could serve as a small-ball center for stretches, or Dewayne Dedmon and Omer Yurtseven could tackle center duties. Adebayo enjoyed a strong closing stretch to the season, shooting 61.8% from the field over his final 21 contests, having averaged 20 points and 9.5 boards in that stretch.

Sun Apr 10 202217:56Bam Adebayo Won't Be Available On Sunday
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic. He has been ruled out for this contest due to the league's health and safety protocols. That means, Adebayo must spend five days away from the team. However, he should be back in time for the playoffs. Omer Yurtseven (illness) could be asked to play heavy minutes on Sunday. He'd be an interesting streaming option, assuming he does play here.

Mon Jan 17 202219:00Bam Adebayo Will Play Against Raptors
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (thumb) will make his return to the court on Monday versus the Toronto Raptors. He has been sidelined since November 29 due to a right thumb injury. It's uncertain if the Heat plan to ease Adebayo back into action. Regardless, fantasy managers in season long formats can go ahead and start Adebayo. Omer Yurtseven has been fantastic in the absence of Adebayo. Although, his fantasy value is expected to take a significant hit with Adebayo returning. Possibly, Yurtseven carves a role out for himself, but it's unlikely to be anything worth holding him in most fantasy formats.

Mon Jan 17 202218:05Bam Adebayo Hopeful For Monday
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (thumb) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Adebayo has been targeting Monday as his return date after a lengthy absence. In fact, Adebayo has been sidelined since November 29 due to a thumb injury. Fantasy managers should expect Adebayo to be on a minutes limit during his first game back. Also, his return will likely end the fantasy appeal of Omer Yurtseven. He has been fantastic in the absence of Adebayo. Hopefully, there will still be a role for Yurtseven, but it's unlikely to be enough to hold fantasy value.

Fri Jan 14 202219:20Bam Adebayo Targeting Monday For Return
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (thumb) is targeting Monday against the Toronto Raptors as a return date. It has been roughly six weeks since Adebayo last took the court. Luckily, Omer Yurtseven and Dewayne Dedmon have helped fill the void while Adebayo has been sidelined. Yurtseven is averaging 10.3 points, 13.8 rebounds, and 1.1 steals over his last 12 games. He has probably done enough to earn himself a role in the rotation. Sadly, it's unlikely to be enough to warrant holding him in fantasy formats. It sounds like Yurtseven will see his fantasy run come to an end this weekend.

Wed Dec 1 202118:18Bam Adebayo Sustains Torn Thumb Ligament, Out Indefinitely
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (thumb) has not only been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Cleveland, he will be on the shelf for much longer. The dynamic 24-year-old big man has sustained a torn UCL in his right thumb and will need to undergo surgery, which is expected to keep him out of action for the next 4-6 weeks. Enjoying a stellar start to the year, averaging 18.7 points and 10.2 rebounds per contest, Adebayo will cede the starting center spot to Dewayne Dedmon, although head coach Erik Spoelstra could also opt to utilize P.J. Tucker as a small ball center, a role he has familiarity with. There will be significant opportunities up for grabs with the Heat in Adebayo's absence, with Wednesday serving as the first look into how the labor could be divided over the next month-plus.

Tue Nov 30 202120:09Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo Questionable To Play Wednesday
Miami Heat small forward Jimmy Butler (tailbone) and center Bam Adebayo (thumb) have picked up questionable designations ahead of Wednesday's matchup vs. Cleveland. Butler has already logged one absence due to a tailbone injury, which allowed Caleb Martin to shift into the starting five and notch 18 points Monday. Adebayo is coming off his ninth double-double of the year, with an absence likely to funnel minutes in the direction of Dewayne Dedmon (knee), who would become a DFS target if Adebayo is out. With Tyler Herro's (illness) status also murky, fantasy managers will want to check back before tip-off to get a better read of who the Heat will have at their disposal.

Tue Nov 30 202110:11Bam Adebayo Finds His Way Back Into The Double-Double Column
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo ended a six-game double-double drought with 24 points and 13 rebounds in Monday's loss to the Nuggets, shooting 11-for-19 from the field and 2-for-4 at the foul line. He also recorded six assists with five turnovers in 35 minutes. Adebayo saw a lot more of the ball on the offensive end, with Jimmy Butler (tailbone) out of the lineup. He'll hope to remain in double-double form Wednesday night against Cleveland. It should at least be another good scoring spot for Adebayo, with the Cavaliers allowing opposing centers to shoot over 60 percent from the field.

Thu Nov 25 202118:51Bam Adebayo Scores Team-High 18 Points During Loss Wednesday
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo logged a team-high 18 points during a 113-101 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday. The 24-year-old shot 70% from the field but went an ugly 4-for-11 from the line. The Kentucky product added five rebounds, three assists, and a steal across 36 minutes. While the fifth-year pro is averaging a career-high 19.0 points, he's seen a sharp decrease in assists and blocks per game. The decrease in those two categories, specifically assists, is damaging to Adebayo's value as the category was an x-factor at the center position.
