The Miami Heat have one of the most talented young bigs in the league, Bam Adebayo, but he has so much room to grow.

The following guy might, initially, seem a bit confusing but follow us here. When it comes to the Miami Heat’s starting big man, Bam Adebayo, he has a ton of potential for next season as well.

Though Adebayo is one of the Miami Heat’s best players, an All-Star in the NBA, and one of the best young players in the game, he has so much room to grow. From a defensive perspective, it’s now about being able to take that ability and instead of just changing the game from possession to possession, learning how to use that to win or sway games on a night in and night out basis.

This isn’t saying that Jayson Tatum block from the bubble playoffs will happen every night, but it’s saying a play of that magnitude should and will. Offensively, well, that’s pretty self-explanatory.

The guy needs to expand his game and well, his confidence, to be most specific. The guy can do anything that he wants to do on the court, he just has to believe in himself enough for him to do it.

Though after the fact, right now, this is something that will never be forgotten. During these past playoffs, there were numerous opportunities that saw Bam with the ball at the top of the key, a canal of space from a width and length standpoint, Brook Lopez, and then the rim.

Bam Adebayo hurried to find someone to pass the ball to. That shouldn’t be happening and that’s the next step for him.

That’s why he’s still one of the Miami Heat’s most potential-filled guys. He still has so much to learn and so much room to grow.
