Bam Adebayo's performance as the Miami Heat's centerpiece has been widely analyzed, particularly during critical postseason moments. In the recent playoff match against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Adebayo managed a commendable near triple-double with 11 points, 14 rebounds, and 9 assists. However, his shooting woes, marked by a 3-for-9 shooting from the field and a disappointing 1-for-5 from beyond the arc, underscored his ongoing struggles to deliver offensively in high-pressure situations.

The Heat's playoff success has been notably tied to Adebayo's scoring output, with evidence suggesting they win 56.1% of games where he exceeds 12 points. With a mere 36.8% win rate in games where he scores 11 or fewer, Adebayo's inconsistency raises concerns. Despite having expectations to step into a more dominant role following Jimmy Butler's departure, his overall offensive capabilities remain a point of contention among fans and analysts alike.
