Bam Adebayo is the X-factor for the Miami Heat this upcoming season. Yes, I know when people hear the term ” X-factor”, they think of a role player/sixth man-type to change a playoff series or something like that.
With Adebayo, he obviously doesn’t fit the criteria of an X-factor but he has the highest upside on the current roster.
What I mean by X-factor is if Adebayo can make that leap in his game, offensively, then Miami has a chance of returning to the NBA Finals.
