Pat Riley: I see Bam Adebayo in Miami for his whole career
“It’s been a blessing to have him,” Riley told the Miami Herlad. “I go back to [Alonzo Mourning] and Zo was a franchise face and then Dwyane [Wade] along with Udonis [Haslem], and now I look at Bam Adebayo the same way because of longevity. I see Bam here, I hope, for his whole career.”

The Nets lost 2 stars when they traded Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. However, in a game that featured Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo Wednesday, Mikal Bridges was the best player on the court.

Barry Jackson: Butler, asked if he’s at all disappointed about not making All Star team o OK with it: “Me no All-Star? Please. I’ll see you’all when I see you’all. But Bam does deserve that. He’s been carrying the load a lot this year. I’m happy for him. As for me? I’m happy I get a vacation.” -via Twitter @flasportsbuzz / February 5, 2023
The Nets would be interested in Bam Adebayo, Jimmy Butler, or Tyler Herro coming to Brooklyn in a potential Irving trade. Miami would prefer to move off Kyle Lowry, who’s owed $29.7 million next season. -via HoopsHype / February 4, 2023
