Report: Heat Sign Bam Adebayo to Five-Year Extension

The Miami Heat have signed All-Star forward Bam Adebayo to a five-year extension, according to The Athletic's Shams Charania.

The deal is reportedly worth $163 million and can go up to $195.6 million.

Adebayo averaged 15.9 points and 10.2 rebounds per game last season and made his first All-Star team. The No. 14 pick in the 2017 NBA draft additionally upped his scoring to more than 17 points per game throughout last year's postseason.

Following the Heat’s Game 6 Eastern Conference finals win over the Celtics in 2019-20, fellow Miami start Jimmy Butler called Adebayo the “heart and soul” of the Heat.
