Contrary to some reports from this week, Miami Heat president Pat Riley appears adamant that Bam Adebayo isn’t leaving South Beach anytime soon.

On Tuesday morning, Jake Fischer of Yahoo! Sports — a well-respected news breaker in the NBA world — reported that the Portland Trail Blazers were “preparing what the team believes to be a compelling package for Miami to part with All-Defensive centerpiece Bam Adebayo” in a trade scenario with the Heat that would team Adebayo up with seven-time NBA All-Star Damian Lillard in Portland.
