In this edition of Miami Heat Hot Topics, Bam Adebayo doesn’t make the next stage with Team USA, Udonis Haslem is back and we make some bold predictions.

In today’s edition of Miami Heat Hot Topics, we’ll catch up on the stories we’ve written so far this week here at All U Can Heat. Among our topics, Bam Adebayo didn’t make the cut with Team USA, Udonis Haslem has signed a one-year contract to return to the Heat and we’re going down the roster and making bold predictions for the team next season.

Without further ado, we’ll get started on the recap.

Udonis Haslem re-signs and will return to the Heat:

A franchise cornerstone, Haslem will return for a 17th season, all with the Miami Heat. After teammate Dwyane Wade got a farewell party, Haslem will get a chance to have the spotlight to himself in what will likely be his final NBA season.

Team USA a springboard for Bam Adebayo:

While Adebayo didn’t make the next stage of training with Team USA and get an invite to Los Angeles with the rest of the team, his dismissal may end up being a blessing down the road for him and the Heat after all. Our Kenneth Wilson explains why that might be.
