Bam Adebayo Fantasy Stats

Miami Heat forward/center Bam Adebayo (back) is listed as probable for Saturday's matchup against Minnesota and is expected to play through mild lower back soreness. Adebayo has continued to anchor the frontcourt, averaging 13.4 points, 11.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.2 steals in 31.6 minutes over his last five games. His availability keeps Kel'el Ware in a secondary but viable role, with occasional double-double upside when minutes hold, while Andrew Wiggins maintains steady wing usage. Adebayo remains a firm hold with reliable multi-category production.

Miami Heat forward/center Bam Adebayo (back) will return to the lineup on Monday against the Denver Nuggets, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports. The talented big man has been nursing a lower back injury lately, missing two games. Pelle Larsson filled in for Adebayo in the starting lineup and will likely drop back to the bench on Monday, despite a pair of quality performances. Adebayo had a two-point dud in his first meeting with Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets this season. His recent form isn't encouraging either, as Adebayo has finished two of his last four appearances with fewer than 10 points.

Miami Heat forward/center Bam Adebayo (back) is probable heading into Monday's meeting with the visiting Nuggets after missing the last two games because of lower back soreness. Assuming Adebayo is cleared to return, he should immediately find a spot in all fantasy lineups. With that said, his presence will likely result in Pelle Larsson, who had 16 points, seven assists, and one block as a starter in Friday's win over the Pacers, heading back to the bench. Jaime Jaquez Jr., coming off a 28-point effort, may have issues staying as productive if Adebayo is back on the floor.

Miami Heat forward/center Bam Adebayo (back) won't play on Saturday against the Indiana Pacers, marking his second-straight absence. It's unknown if he'll suit up on Monday night versus Denver. However, while Adebayo is sidelined, Kel'el Ware (quadriceps), who is available, Normal Powell, and Jaime Jaquez Jr. should also continue to benefit on both ends of the floor. Pelle Larsson, who had 21 points as a starter in Friday's win over the Atlanta Hawks, should also remain more involved.

Miami Heat forward/center Bam Adebayo (back) won't play on Friday against Atlanta. He hasn't missed a game in over a month. However, Adebayo is dealing with lower back soreness, so fantasy managers are hoping to see him back out there on Saturday versus the Indiana Pacers. While Bam is sidelined, Kel'el Ware should get all of the work he can handle at the five spot. There's a good chance Jaime Jaquez Jr. finds his way into the starting lineup. With that said, any player on the Heat roster could exceed their usual fantasy projections in a meeting with a Hawks team that has struggled defensively throughout the 2025 campaign.

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (back) is questionable for Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks as Miami opens a back-to-back set. His availability across both games remains unclear. If Adebayo is held out, Kel'el Ware would likely absorb the majority of center minutes after averaging 17.0 points, 13.4 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks in 26.6 minutes over his last five games. Jaime Jaquez Jr. has logged 32.9 minutes per game during that span, while Simone Fontecchio's role would remain situational.

Miami Heat forward/center Bam Adebayo (toe) will be available against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night. The Heat have uprgaded his status from questionable to available. Adebayo was out for six games after spraining his left big toe. As a result of his return, Kel'el Ware will likely land in the second unit for Wednesday's game. However, Ware should still have a significant role to play in the rotation, and there might even be more minutes than usual available for Miami's bench mob on Wednesday, as the Warriors will play with a weakened team.

Miami Heat forward/center Bam Adebayo (toe) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Golden State Warriors. This marks a positive development, as Adebayo has missed six consecutive games without even getting a doubtful designation on the injury report. Kel'el Ware has looked great as Adebayo's replacement in the starting lineup, averaging 12.7 points, 12.5 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks over the last six games. Even with Adebayo back, Ware will continue to have decent fantasy value. But he must settle for a smaller role in the rotation.

Miami Heat forward/center Bam Adebayo (toe) will remain sidelined for a sixth straight game on Monday night against the New York Knicks. The star big man hurt his left big toe in a game earlier this month. Adebayo practiced on Sunday, which may indicate that he could be ready to return soon. After hosting the Knicks, Miami's next game will be on Wednesday night against the Golden State Warriors. Kel'el Ware is looking at another start at center on Monday. He had a 15-point, 10-rebound double-double, along with three blocks, in Friday's 140-132 loss to the Knicks.

Miami Heat forward/center Bam Adebayo (toe) has been ruled out for Friday's big NBA Cup matchup against the New York Knicks. This will be his fifth consecutive absence after Adebayo sprained his left big toe. Kel'el Ware has returned to the first unit during Adebayo's injury layoff, producing some impressive performances, including a 20-rebound effort on Monday night against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Overall, Ware has averaged 10.0 points and 9.8 rebounds in 24.2 minutes as a starter this season. Friday's matchup looks like a tough one on paper for Ware, as defensive specialist Mitchell Robinson is expected to play, and the Knicks have the fifth-highest rebounding rate in the league.
