Brady Hawk @BradyHawk305Keeps looking like Bam Adebayo and Victor Oladipo are really getting close
If you were to say the Heat would be in the 3 seed midway through January as each inch closer to their return, I’d say that’s best possible case scenario
And they’ve done that in a total road stretch – 3:50 PM
Anthony Chiang @Anthony_ChiangJimmy Butler, Markieff Morris, Marcus Garrett, KZ Okpala and Victor Oladipo not traveling with Heat to Atlanta today.
Bam Adebayo and Dewayne Dedmon are on the trip. Adebayo not playing tomorrow, but has traveled with team in recent weeks just to be around teammates, coaches. – 3:22 PM
Chad Ford @chadfordinsiderRookie of the Week
Ömer Yurtseven, Miami Heat
“Yurtseven has taken over as the starting center the past seven games for the Heat in the absence of Bam Adebayo, and he’s been awesome — averaging 12 ppg, 15.3 rpg, 2.6 apg, 1.4 spg and 0.4 bpg.”
