The Miami Heat reportedly are extending star Bam Adebayo’s contract.
Even before the numbers had been solidified, it was clear that the talented youngster was on his way to a massive payday.
Shortly after, the full numbers came in.
Adebayo, 23, made his first All-Star team this past season.
He quickly burst on the scene this past season as Miami’s second option behind star Jimmy Butler.
During the 2019-20 campaign, Adebayo averaged 15.9 points, 10.2 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game. All of those numbers were career-highs for Adebayo.
Now, Miami will lock him up to an extension, keeping him in South Florida for the foreseeable future.
