3 Olympic teammates we'd love to see Bam Adebayo play with again on the Heat

Bam Adebayo's Olympics run put a lot of people on notice. Adebayo was getting recognition from Stephen Curry and LeBron James. Like they gave Adebayo a stamp of approval. Not that he needs it, but it's a big deal when guys like Curry and James complement you.

Adebayo's play shows he is an excellent fit with anyone who consistently scores. His defense was also on display. Seeing Adebayo roaming around on defense on the court is more fun than in Miami, where he is undersized most of the time as a full-time center. The way Adebayo played for Team USA made me think about which of his Olympic teammates would be a good fit next to him in Miami.

Anthony Edwards

Bam Adebayo and Anthony Edwards could form a great duo in the league. Both players have a similar mindset when they're on the court. Edwards would benefit from Adebayo's energy. The two developed a relationship during the Olympics. Adebayo's scoring ability, coupled with his ball-handling and decision-making skills, makes him great on offense, especially in the pick-and-roll.

If Adebayo had a guard who could pass him the ball, his performance in the pick-and-roll would be even better. On the other hand, Edwards excels in a two-man game, getting downhill, attacking the rim, or finding his spots for a mid-range jumper. Adebayo's ability to roll to the rim or make the right pass off the roll complements Edwards' playing style.

Moreover, Adebayo poses a significant lob threat and sets great screens to create driving opportunities for Edwards. Edwards fits well into "Heat Culture" and has a good relationship with coach Erik Spoelstra. At only 23 years old, he also aligns well with Adebayo's timeline.

Given the ownership issues facing Edwards's current team, the Minnesota Timberwolves, a potential move to Miami with Adebayo and Spoelstra could make sense if things go south for Edwards in Minnesota.
