NIKE, NIKE MESH JERSEY, SIZE 52 (+6 LENGTH)
This home ‘Statement Edition’ jersey was worn in the 2nd half by Bam Adebayo on Christmas Day, when the Miami Heat played the Philadelphia 76ers.
Adebayo recorded a double-double, finishing with 26 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 blocks. The Heat beat the 76ers, 119-113.
Coming out of the University of Kentucky, there was little question about Bam Adebayo’s physical traits. Despite his supreme athleticism, Bam, at 6’9”, was considered an undersized Forward/Center who didn’t shoot from the perimeter. The Heat drafted Bam with the 14th pick in the 1st round of the 2017 NBA Draft, and questions about his game were quickly dispelled by his play on the defensive side of the ball and playmaking ability. Bam broke out in his 3rd season, being named to the NBA All-Star Game for the first time and playing a vital role in the Miami Heat’s run to the 2019-2020 NBA Finals. Bam has improved each season offensively, averaging a career-best 21 points per game in the 2023-2024 season.
At the time of cataloging, Bam has career averages of 15.2 points per game, 8.6 rebounds per game, and 3.5 assists per game. He is a 3-time NBA All-Star and has been named to the NBA All-Defensive 2nd Team 4 times.
