For Bam Adebayo, it has actually ended up being about tradition — with the Miami Heat and beyond. So as he moves closer to this weekend’s opening idea of the basketball competitors at the Paris Olympics, the focus for the 27-year-old huge man is on another banner minute. Upon going back to Miami from Japan with Olympic gold in 2021, Adebayo saw his name raised to the Kaseya Center rafters along with those from the Heat who formerly protected such Olympic gold medals: Alonzo Mourning, Tim Hardaway, Dwyane Wade and LeBron James. “I think it’ll be dope,” Adebayo stated of possibly having a 2nd banner, “because it’s not about yourself.” -by means of South Florida Sun-Sentinel / July 28, 2024
