[Saba Sports News] Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo could have done without his team highlighting his Olympics performance on Saturday.
Though Team USA won by 20 points over Puerto Rico, Adebayo wasn’t a major factor. In 17 minutes, he tallied three points, five rebounds, three assists, and two steals. It wasn’t a standout performance, but it also didn’t hurt the team.
Despite this, the Heat highlighted his game on social media, prompting Adebayo to joke, “Y’all didn’t have to post my quadruple single.”
Fortunately, Adebayo has had better performances during the games, and it’s still better than being called out by Charles Barkley for a similar statline.
Saturday’s win ensures Team USA will cruise into the quarterfinals, giving Adebayo another chance to improve his numbers.
