Miami Heat big man Bam Adebayo thrived in Wednesday's matchup against Serbia
Adebayo shined in Team USA's Wednesday morning exhibition against three-time MVP Nikola Jokic and Serbia. He finished the day with 17 points, eight rebounds, and three assists on 6 of 9 shooting. Perhaps the most impressive feat of his outing is knocking down 60 percent of three-pointers on five attempts. This level of three-point shooting should excite Heat fans for what's to come next season.
Los Angeles Lakers star and teammate LeBron James had jokes for Adebayo following the game. He described the Heat center as 'the new splash brother', in reference to Golden State Warriors guard tandem Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson.Not only did Adebayo shine on the offensive end, but he and Anthony Davis shut down Serbia's attack. Meanwhile, Philadelphia 76ers big man Joel Embiid is finding himself a victim of heavy criticism on social media.
