Bam Adebayo

Bam Adebayo posted a double-double for the Heat Monday night, grabbing 10 rebounds and chipping in 13 points (5-10 FG, 1-2 3PT, 2-2 FT) while also recording one steal and dishing out four assists in a 147-123 win over the Nuggets.

Fantasy Impact

Adebayo continues a modest stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with eight or more points and nine or more rebounds in each of his last five games. The 28-year-old remains a stable option in the Miami starting five for fantasy managers, averaging 18.0 points and 9.5 rebounds per game to go along with a 23.4% usage rate so far this season.

Bam Adebayo has been upgraded to available for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets.

Fantasy Impact

Adebayo missed Saturday’s game against the Indiana Pacers but will return to the court on Monday. With his return, Nikola Jovic and Kel’el Ware could see their minutes reduced.

Bam Adebayo (back) is probable for the Heat's game against the Nuggets on Monday.

Fantasy Impact

Adebayo missed the Heat's game against the Pacers on Saturday, but things are looking better for him heading into Monday. If he plays, he should be a strong start against the Nuggets.

Bam Adebayo has been ruled out for Saturday's matchup against the Indiana Pacers as he continues to deal with lower back tightness.

Fantasy Impact

This marks another absence for the Heat's star center. In his stead, rookie Kel’el Ware is expected to continue seeing a bump in usage and minutes. Meanwhile, Pelle Larsson, who moved into the starting lineup and scored 21 points in Friday's win over the Hawks, remains a key beneficiary in the rotation.

Bam Adebayo (back) is not expected to play Friday night against the Hawks.

Fantasy Impact

Adebayo's availability is certainly in doubt for Friday, as the three-time All-Star is dealing with back soreness. Nikola Jovic (elbow) should return and could play significant minutes.
