The Boston Celtics performed better than anyone expected in 2025-26. They entered this season with very low expectations as there was no guarantee that top star Jayson Tatum would suit up as he recovered from a torn Achilles suffered the previous spring. However, an MVP-caliber season from Jaylen Brown and a defense that gave up a league-leading 107.2 points per game, earning them the No. 2 seed in the East playoffs.

With Tatum returning in March and immediately looking impressive, the Celtics began the postseason as favorites to reach the NBA Finals. However, despite having a 3–1 series lead over the Philadelphia 76ers, they were surprisingly eliminated in the opening round for the first time since the bubble playoffs.

His exit in the first round raises many questions on the structure of this team. Could they be finals contenders as they try to field two players with supermax contracts? Is making the playoffs every year enough? If the goal is to compete for championships, the Celtics need to make some big changes.

With that in mind, let’s take a look at five bold deals the Celtics could make this summer.

Bam Adebayo, Jaime Jaquez Jr. and first-round picks Jaylen Brown in 2028, 2030 and 2032

If the Celtics decide they need to move one of those supermax contracts, Brown will likely be the odd man out, despite being an MVP candidate. But if they ever wanted to trade him, now would be the right time as his value is as high as it will ever be.

If there’s any glaring weakness for Boston, it’s in the front court. If they trade Brown, they still have strong core talent in Tatum and Derrick White. This is why Miami Heat great Bam Adebayo could be a trade target. He will give them both a defensive force on the front line and a good scorer who will help make up for the points left due to losing the Browns.

A deal that sends Adebayo, Jaime Jaquez Jr. and two future first-round picks should get a deal done.

Jaylen Brown, Malik Monk, two first picks, including lottery selection in June, for Domantas Sabonis

Another potential target to strengthen the front court could be three-time All-Star Domantas Sabonis. While the Sacramento Kings star isn’t a defensive force, he is an elite rebounder and can stretch the floor just like Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford.

To put the money to work, the Celtics would need to pick up the two years and $41 million remaining on Malik Monk’s contract. But if they get two first-rounders back in the deal, including the Kings’ lottery pick in June, that’s fine. The biggest issue is that Sacramento will have to find a trade for Zach LaVine and/or DeMar DeRozan after a deal is made.

Derrick White for Jakob Poeltl and Grady Dick

The Celtics don’t need to trade Brown to be better in 2026-27. However, this would mean they would have to move on from fan-favorite defensive player Derrick White. A potential trade could see the two-time All-Defensive Team honoree sent to the Toronto Raptors for centers Jakob Poeltl and Grady Dick.

While it’s not a sexy trade on the surface, Poeltl is a rock-solid and strong anchor in the front court that does everything you need to stabilize that position. As for Dick, he could be a potential steal who could be an impact player in Joe Mazzulla’s three-point-heavy attack.

Jaylen Brown for Giannis Antetokounmpo

Since Brown had such an impressive season, another option would be a swap for Milwaukee Bucks great Giannis Antetokounmpo. While the Greek icon has more accolades, Brown is a few years younger and far healthier than the 10-time All-Star has been in recent years. If necessary, the Celtics can add a future first-rounder, but they shouldn’t add more than that.

The Bucks will get to build a new star in his prime, while the Celtics can experiment with the combo of Antetokounmpo and Tatum for a season. If that doesn’t work out, they free up a ton of cap space after next season if he opts out in search of a new long-term deal.

Jaylen Brown for Alpern Sengun, Fred VanVleet and two first-round picks

An interesting young star who could be on the trade block this summer, and who addresses the Celtics’ frontcourt needs, is Houston Rockets two-time All-Star Alpern Sengun. While he has been questioned for his play consistently and early in the playoffs, he is still only 23 and has excelled in Ime Udoka’s defense-first system.

Houston would be interested in a championship by pairing Jaylen Brown with Kevin Durant in 2026-27. But Sengun and Tatum have plenty of long-term potential. Additionally, to make the money work, the Celtics would get veteran guard Fred VanVleet (if he opts into the final year of his deal) and two future first-round picks.

As the Miami Heat try to figure out their next move, team president Pat Riley doesn’t seem to be speculating about the possibility of trading three-time All-Star Bam Adebayo.

He met with the media on Monday and was asked if he would consider leaving Adebayo after other teams have traded away their franchise players to become better over the past few years. His answer was quite definite. And he even offered a ridiculous price that he would accept:

Popular sports podcaster Bill Simmons has a bold trade idea that would send Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo to the Charlotte Hornets, and both teams should seriously consider it.

The Heat is one of the most respected franchises in the NBA. “Heat culture” is a brand known throughout the league, and the team’s seventh consecutive trip to the playoffs to miss the playoffs proves it. However, the devil is in the details, and their last three appearances were needed to secure the postseason by participating in the NBA Play-In Tournament.

This month, they again reached the play-ins but lost to the Hornets. Furthermore, the team has achieved 50 wins in only one season in the last 12 years. While the Heat are always competitive and reached the NBA Finals in 2023, they haven’t been a serious title contender in a very long time. That’s why this is an important offseason for the club, with ample reason to discuss major changes to the roster.

Maybe that’s why The Ringer podcast host, Bill Simmons, came up with a revolutionary idea this week. In this, Miami will send three-time All-Star Bam Adebayo to the Hornets. At first glance, Heat fans may scoff at the idea of ​​trading away their best player and the guy who scored 83 points a game this season, but they should seriously consider the notion.

Why the Heat should consider trading Bam Adebayo to the Hornets

In a potential trade for Simmons, the Heat would get the expiring contracts of Miles Bridges – who averaged 17.1 points and 5.8 boards – and Grant Williams. They get their first-rounder back in 2027, so Miami can get all of their future first-rounders again. Also, the Hornets have two Round 1 picks this year (14th and 18th overall) and the first in 2029.

Simmons’ guest on the show, ESPN NBA insider Zach Lowe, liked the trade for the Hornets. He also said Adebayo is a North Carolina native and his family goes to a lot of Hornets games every year. “He’ll be great there,” Lowe said.

However, is it worth it for Miami? As Lowe noted, this summer is a “come to Jesus moment” for the Heat. It appears that this group has reached its limits, and it seems like the time is right for big changes. Since Adebayo feels like he’s a perfect fit for Charlotte, they’d probably be willing to give up what Simmons suggested. But Adebayo’s transfer doesn’t mean a losing season in 2026-27.

Bam Adebayo stats: 20.1 ppg, 10.0 rpg, 3.2 apg, 1.2 spg, 0.7 bpg

There have long been rumors that the Heat would pursue a Giannis Antetokounmpo trade this summer. Those additional draft picks would make Miami’s offer to the Milwaukee Bucks even better. Still, he doesn’t have to be the only player they get.

Despite Ja Morant’s low trade value, they could easily acquire both Antetokounmpo and Morant this summer. If management still has big faith in Jaime Jacquez Jr. and Kel’El Ware, they could try to re-sign Norman Powell and pair those three with Donovan Mitchell, who reportedly could be placed on the trade block if he doesn’t sign an extension with the Cleveland Cavaliers this summer.

They may still be able to add Morant to that mix if they want. Either way, moving Adebayo to the Hornets could open the door to a major overhaul that would make Miami a better team in the short and long term.

即使是世界上最偉大的千里眼和最大的水晶球也無法預測邁阿密熱火隊中鋒巴姆·阿德巴約在對陣華盛頓奇才隊的比賽中狂砍83分，創下NBA歷史第二高分。

雖然阿德巴約絕對能得分，但他從來不被認為是進攻強者。在上個月對陣巫師隊的比賽中，他的職業生涯最高得分為41分。他從來沒有在一個賽季中場均得分超過 20 分，包括在肯塔基大學。

關於阿德巴約的83分特技引發了激烈的爭論。有人慶祝，有人貶低，認為他在一場基本上毫無意義的比賽中嘗試了 43 次投籃和 43 次罰球。

然而，熱火傳奇人物德維恩韋德卻沒有接受任何誹謗。在客串《吉米法倫今夜秀》時，韋德將阿德巴約的歷史性成就歸功於 不同的視角。

「前幾天我試圖在電子遊戲中做到這一點，但我沒能做到。我的成績是 79。我無法在電子遊戲中做到這一點。我現在無法去 Lifetime Fitness 做到這一點。這是一項令人難以置信的壯舉，」這位三屆冠軍說道。

“獲得 83 分所需的心血管（活動）和耐力令人難以置信。”

「前幾天我試圖在電子遊戲中做到這一點，但沒有成功。我的成績是 79。我無法在電子遊戲中做到這一點，我現在無法終身健身並做到這一點。這是一項令人難以置信的壯舉。它需要心血管，它需要耐力…… pic.twitter.com/8lseE6lXMh

– 喔不，他沒有（@ohnohedidnt24） 2026 年 4 月 8 日

在球隊以150-129擊敗巫師隊的比賽中，阿德巴約只休息了六分鐘。他還貢獻了9個籃板、3次助攻、2次抄截和2次蓋帽。

生涯單場最高55分的韋德見證了阿德巴約這些年的成長。他們在南海灘當了兩年的隊友，一直保持著緊密的聯繫。

除了韋德之外，NBA傳奇人物邁克爾喬丹也對阿德巴約的83分錶示讚賞。

The Miami Heat have cooled off the past few games as the basketball world is still trying to process Bam Adebayo’s recent 83-point game, the second-most in NBA history. While some have celebrated the feat, which puts him ahead of Kobe Bryant and behind only Wilt Chamberlain in the record books, others have tried to downplay Adebayo’s accomplishment by pointing out some of the bizarre tactics Miami used to help him get to this point.

One guy who falls into the latter camp is former NBA guard Austin Rivers, who recently went on The Ryan Russillo Show to challenge Adebayo.

“If you score more than 30 against [Victor Wembanyama]. It will be as impressive to me as you are getting [83] Points… I’ll tip more than you get [83] Against the f*****g Wizards,” Rivers said, according to X, formerly of The Ryan Russillo Show on Twitter.

Adebayo will have a chance to do that on Monday night when the Heat host Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs.

The Heat have a very difficult schedule at the moment, having lost four games in a row and falling into the play-in field in the Eastern Conference as a result. Adebayo had a stellar game of 32 points and 21 rebounds over the weekend against the Houston Rockets, but Miami lost in the final seconds when Amen Thompson missed Kevin Durant at the buzzer.

Adebayo had a big game against the Spurs earlier this year, and he’ll need a similar output this time around to get Miami back in the win column against a San Antonio team that has been impressive in recent weeks.

Tipoff between the Heat and Spurs is scheduled for 7:00 pm ET.

邁阿密熱火隊在周六晚上以 123-122 輸給休斯頓火箭隊後試圖恢復元氣，但球星巴姆·阿德巴約的表現是為數不多的亮點之一。儘管熱火隊希望在周一對陣聖安東尼奧馬刺隊的比賽中扭轉四連敗的局面，但阿德巴約對陣火箭隊的表現卻令人驚嘆。

儘管輸掉了比賽，阿德巴約還是取得了職業生涯第一，打出了 30 勝 20 負的戰績，特別是得到 32 分和 21 個籃板，因為邁阿密週六缺少諾曼鮑威爾、安德魯維金斯和小海梅雅克斯。當阿德巴約談到他的夜晚時，他會對自己的出色表現表現出一種若無其事的態度，並表示人們可以透過一場勝利「更加慶祝」。

「顯然，一場一場地比賽，如果你能取得勝利，那就更好了，這樣你就可以慶祝得更多。這些都是人們對我的期望，尤其是我們讓球員出局並試圖贏得勝利，」阿德巴約在X（前推特）上的熱火領域說道。

巴姆·阿德巴約 (Bam Adebayo) 談他今晚 30/20 的表現：

“只是一場一場地比賽……這些就是你對我的期望，尤其是我們讓球員出局了……”

儘管人們可以理解阿德巴約的想法，但這位明星大個子也曾慶祝過更大的比賽，尤其是上週二，他拿下 83 分，創造了 NBA 歷史上第二高得分的比賽。

熱火隊在慘敗給火箭隊後正在尋求恢復

儘管如此，阿德巴約的進球還是帶領邁阿密隊取得了勝利，儘管輸給火箭隊的比賽令人心碎，因為比賽是由阿門湯普森的壓哨投籃決定的。更令人沮喪的是，阿德巴約在最後一投中對凱文杜蘭特的防守無可挑剔，儘管湯普森在補防中滑過了熱火。

「我們看到了我們的能力，」阿德巴約說。 「我們稍微鬆開了繩子，但我們反擊了，並把它變成了一場比賽……我們知道我們想要從（入圍賽）中得到什麼，這些比賽是毀滅性的，但我們仍然有機會。”

無論如何，熱火隊目前戰績為 38 勝 33 負，在周一對陣馬刺隊的比賽之前排名東部第九，因為本賽季還剩 11 場比賽。

Luka Doncic continued his high-scoring onslaught over the past few days, exploding 60 points in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 134-126 win over the Miami Heat on Thursday at Kasia Center.

Doncic was coming off a breakout season of 40 points in their win over the Houston Rockets, 124-116, at the Toyota Center on Wednesday, but the busy schedule hasn’t stopped him from getting frantic again.

He was efficient against the Heat, shooting 18 of 30 from the field, including 9 of 17 shots from long range. He made 15 of 19 shots from the free-throw stripe.

After Doncic’s heroic performance, which was the second-highest output of his career, fans couldn’t help but bring up, or should we say, put down, Bam Adebayo’s 83-point game against the Washington Wizards.

“The Lakers’ Luka Doncic’s 60-point competitive game was far more impressive than the Heat’s Bam Adebayo’s 83 points in a meaningless game. Imagine if Luka had made 13 more field goals, five of them threes, and 24 more free throws? Come on,” @das_187 said.

@Gunsmoke__Q echoed, “Bam Adebayo scores 83 on Wizards, Luka scores 60 on Heat.”

@TomBrady80 said, “If Adebayo had shot as efficiently as Luka, he would have had 100+ points.”

“Luka just showed Adebayo what it was like,” @_SayParlay_ posted.

@BallinKP8 commented, “Luka Bam showing Adebayo how to properly put up a significant amount of points straight in his face. #thatsforkobe.”

The hate train continues for Adebayo to have a career night. Recall, he made 23 of 43 shots from the field, including 7 of 22 from long distance. He went 36-of-43 from the free-throw line. The Heat won 150–129.

Many, including Michael Jordan, congratulated Adebayo for his historic performance.

But on Thursday, he was on the receiving end of Doncic’s outstanding performance, and of course, Adebayo, who had 28 points and 10 rebounds, respected it.

在见证伟大的一周多后，巴姆·阿德巴约和迈阿密热火队发现自己成为了一场高分比赛的接收端。在对阵洛杉矶湖人队的比赛中，阿德巴约和热火队完全无法阻止巨星卢卡·东契奇为所欲为。东契奇全场得到60分，投篮命中率60%，三分命中率52.9%。

赛后，阿德巴约谈到了东契奇的表现。这位热火球星表示东契奇投出了一些艰难的投篮，并表示他们唯一能做的就是向这位湖人球星致敬。

据 ClutchPoints 的扎克·温伯格 (Zach Weinberger) 报道，阿德巴约说：“他在那里打出了一些艰难的投篮。” “我知道处于那种模式下是什么感觉。正如人们所看到的，达到 80 岁并不容易……你要脱帽致敬并继续努力。”

热火队只是东契奇令人难以置信的连续热火的最新受害者。东契奇在进攻上采取了平衡的方式，既依靠三分球，也依靠攻击油漆区。这位湖人队球星 17 次三分球出手 9 次，19 次罚球命中 15 次。东契奇整个晚上都让迈阿密防守队的生活变成了人间地狱。

尽管东契奇表现出色，热火队还是在与湖人队的比赛中打成了一场势均力敌的比赛。首节结束，热火队以42-29领先，半场结束时领先7分。湖人队在第三节奋起反击，重新取得领先。勒布朗·詹姆斯为洛杉矶队拿下 19 分、15 个篮板和 10 次助攻的三双数据。

阿德巴约拿下热火队最高的28分和10个篮板。距离这位明星中锋在对阵华盛顿奇才队的比赛中拿下历史性的 83 分仅剩几天。自从阿德巴约创纪录的表现以来，热火队战绩为1胜3负。

在見證偉大的一周多後，巴姆·阿德巴約和邁阿密熱火隊發現自己成為了一場高分比賽的接收端。在對陣洛杉磯湖人隊的比賽中，阿德巴約和熱火隊完全無法阻止巨星盧卡·東契奇為所欲為。東契奇全場拿下60分，投籃命中率60%，三分球命中率52.9%。

賽後，阿德巴約談到了東契奇的表現。這位熱火球星表示東契奇投出了一些艱難的投籃，並表示他們唯一能做的就是向這位湖人球星致敬。

據 ClutchPoints 的 Zach Weinberger 報道，阿德巴約說：“他在那裡打出了一些艱難的投籃。” “我知道處於那種模式下是什麼感覺。正如人們所看到的，達到 80 歲並不容易……你要脫帽致敬並繼續努力。”

熱火隊只是東契奇令人難以置信的連續熱火的最新受害者。東契奇在進攻上採取了平衡的方式，既依靠三分球，也依靠攻擊油漆區。這位湖人隊球星 17 次三分球出手 9 次，19 次罰球命中 15 次。東契奇整個晚上都讓邁阿密防守隊的生活變成了人間地獄。

儘管東契奇表現出色，熱火隊還是在與湖人隊的比賽中打成了一場勢均力敵的比賽。首節結束，熱火以42-29領先，半場結束時領先7分。湖人隊在第三節奮起反擊，重新取得領先。勒布朗詹姆斯為洛杉磯隊拿下 19 分、15 個籃板和 10 次助攻的三雙數據。

阿德巴約拿下熱火隊最高的28分和10個籃板。距離這位明星中鋒在對陣華盛頓巫師隊的比賽中拿下歷史性的 83 分僅剩幾天。自從阿德巴約創紀錄的表現以來，熱火戰績為1勝3負。

Recently, one of the major talking points in the NBA has been whether or not the Miami Heat violated some unwritten rules of basketball when center Bam Adebayo scored 83 points in a game against the Washington Wizards, passing Kobe Bryant for second-most all-time. Many critics have pointed to Adebayo’s 43 free throw attempts as well as some of the Heat’s bizarre late-game strategies as reasons to discredit the scoring explosion.

However, one person coming to Adebayo’s defense is former NBA guard Patrick Beverley, who recently took to Twitter to share his thoughts on the debate.

“I never knew there was a fake 83. A motherf***** never scored an 83, how could it be fake? This is as real as it gets… People were shocked it was Bam and it wasn’t Steph Curry, it was LeBron James… If KD had the same 83 with the same stats, they wouldn’t treat it like that. It was shocking to people that Bam did that… Bam tops in the NBA Big in 3. Big in top 3… I don’t know what the surprise is,” he said on X, according to Heat Central.

In fact, many were surprised that it was Adebayo, who was averaging just under 20 points per game before the game, who broke Bryant’s second-place mark, and not one of the more high-octane scorers across the NBA landscape.

However, it does show just how talented NBA players really are… and how bad the Wizards defense really is.

Meanwhile, the Heat are looking to bounce back from their seven-game winning streak after losing two consecutive games. They will next take the field on Thursday evening in a home match against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Recently, the Miami Heat were the center of the basketball world when center Bam Adebayo had an incredible 83-point game against the Washington Wizards, giving them the second highest scoring game in league history. The game predictably sparked discussion about how “ethical” Adebayo and the Heat’s methods were, but it was still a historic accomplishment for Miami’s longtime defensive anchor.

On Monday, the NBA announced its players of the week for the past seven days, and to no one’s surprise, Adebayo took home the honor for the Eastern Conference, as league insider Mark Stein, formerly of the Ax, reported on Twitter.

Meanwhile, Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic won the award for the Western Conference.

While Adebayo is a multi-time All-Star and has had good scoring nights, few could have predicted that he would be the player to challenge, let alone break, Kobe Bryant’s mark of 81 points for the second-highest scoring game in league history. Adebayo now trails only Wilt Chamberlain in scoring 100 points in a game.

Meanwhile, the Heat are looking to bounce back after their seven-game winning streak was recently snapped by the Orlando Magic. The Heat and Magic are in a race to see who can clinch the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference, with Orlando currently having a slight edge in that department, and a winning streak of their own.

While Miami certainly isn’t counting on Adebayo to break records on a nightly basis, the game against Washington was a great showcase of what an elite scorer he can be when he puts his mind to it, especially when a common criticism of the star has been his lack of aggression at times throughout his career.

The Heat next take the field on Tuesday evening for an important game against the Charlotte Hornets.

MIAMI – The Miami Heat lost 121-117 to the Orlando Magic for the fifth time this season on Saturday night, pushing them back in the Eastern Conference standings, with the team looking to avoid the play-in tournament. Since this is the right time for the Heat with the return of Norman Powell and Tyler Herro from injury, Adebayo will talk about the upcoming program.

Miami has finished in the play-in tournament the past three seasons, meaning they have finished anywhere between the seventh and 10th seeds, competing with other teams for the final two playoff spots in the East. The team has four weeks left in the regular season to solidify a spot in the postseason, but these next six games will undoubtedly be a “gauntlet,” as Adebayo said.

Looking at the next six games, it includes four teams with winning records, except for the Charlotte Hornets, who they will face on Tuesday, who are 34-34 but have been one of the hottest teams in the league recently, going 18-6 in their last 25 games.

After hosting the Los Angeles Lakers (42-25) on Thursday, Miami will travel to face the Houston Rockets (41-25) on Saturday to close out the week. The following week, the San Antonio Spurs (49–18) came to Miami, the team concluded the week with two games against the Cleveland Cavaliers (41–27).

Where the heat had to be endured on Saturday, it will have to be changed

While the Heat are focused on Adebayo scoring a historic 83 points, as well as continuing a seven-game winning streak prior to the Magic’s loss, the team is now focused on impressing in the toughest stretch of the season. Apart from the offensive side of the ball, it all starts with the defense for the team, which was a disappointing aspect on Saturday.

Orlando came out and scored 41 points in the first quarter, shooting nearly 70 percent from the field, and while Miami got close at the end after being down by 22 points, it was too late. At any rate, Miami looks to bounce back against the Hornets on Tuesday as they are 38-30, leaving them in seventh place in the East.

MIAMI – As the Miami Heat saw the return of Norman Powell and Tyler Herro, it wasn’t enough to overcome the Orlando Magic on Saturday night, losing 121-117. The Heat had major momentum after Bam Adebayo scored a historic 83 points on Tuesday and won seven straight games on Thursday, a streak that was snapped, albeit in an instance that left teammates angry.

Although Miami struggled in the first half, with Orlando jumping out to a 22-point lead, the team returned to its strength on both sides of the ball in the second half, making it a close game with less than a minute left in the contest. The game-changing moment was when the Heat were down four points with 36.6 seconds left in the game as Pelle Larsson inbounded the ball.

With the team and officiating working on it all night, Adebayo had a strong message, calling out the referee who “changed” the game.

“As for the call, it felt like it was swift. That’s what’s frustrating about it, because if we say anything about it we get fined,” Adebayo told ClutchPoints. “But it changed the game. And when you change the game, you’ve got to stick with it.”

“Then on the other side, I felt like they had a five-second call that wasn’t called. Changed the game,” Adebayo continued. “They influence the game in a way that sometimes has an impact, and they get to go home and sleep peacefully, and we’re talking about a call here that you feel should have been called or wasn’t called.”

Asked Bam Adebayo about the controversial five-second call and the second half.

Heat’s Norman Powell says controversial call by refs was “BS”

Heat players raised their voices about the five-second violation, though they all mentioned how the team suffered in the first half, especially when the Magic were allowed to score 41 points, shooting nearly 70 percent from the field in the first quarter. Still, the violation was a stifling call that took away momentum from Miami, such that the call could have been considered a toss-up; Many on the Heat believe this decision was made too quickly.

Star Norman Powell spoke openly about his displeasure with the call, after scoring 20 points off the bench in his return after missing seven games due to a groin strain, telling ClutchPoints that the five-second violation was “BS.”

“It was so fast we didn’t even get through our first two options before they called a five-second violation,” Powell said. “And late in the game, we tried to get them the ball inbounds, they allowed them to call timeout when it was obviously longer than our five-second call. So, we just got frustrated when we were trying to figure out how we could steal the game on the inbounds.”

Norman Powell was asked about repeated calls with referees, particularly the controversial five-second call:

Another player who returned from injury, this time missing two contests due to quadriceps soreness, was Tyler Herro. Finishing the game with 10 points on a disappointing shooting night, he agreed it was a quick call, but says the team will “stick with it”.

“I don’t think it was five seconds. It was a quick five,” Herro said. “Obviously, we stepped back and put ourselves in a position to be limited to four, limited to three, reduced to a one-possession game. But we can’t put ourselves in that position.”

Erik Spoelstra on self-inflicted wounds by the Heat

While the Heat had an inspiring win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday, the loss against the Magic hurt for a number of reasons, the main one being that Miami has been unable to defeat Orlando in its five games this season. The Magic are just the second team in the last three decades to defeat a team (the Heat) five times in a single season.

While Spoelstra also agreed about the five-second call being harsh, he would discuss how the team positions itself for the referee’s single call as the deciding factor.

“They said it was five seconds. I mean, I haven’t gone through the mechanics of it yet, but it felt like a quick five,” Spoelstra said. “But still, we put ourselves in that position. And defensively in the second half, we made a lot of stands, holding them to 37 percent and 50 points. It was a lot different than that first half.”

Spoelstra continued, “We were getting attacked off the dribble, a lot of them, in one-on-one situations, and then in different ways, then cuts, then transitions, we didn’t set the tone for the game defensively.” “And then the rest of the second half, we had to dig out from behind. We don’t want to get into the habit of allowing teams to score 70 and a half runs on us without any resistance.”

The loss to the Heat dropped them to 38-30 on the season, leaving them in seventh place in the Eastern Conference, with their next game coming on Tuesday against the Charlotte Hornets.

迈阿密热火队主席帕特·莱利对 NBA 球迷和分析师试图否认巴姆·阿德巴约历史性的 83 分比赛感到非常恼火。

本周早些时候，阿德巴约不仅打出了热火队历史上最出色的单场表现，而且还创造了 NBA 历史上最好的得分表现之一。 3 月 10 日，这位迈阿密大个子在战胜华盛顿奇才队的比赛中投中 7 个三分球和 36 个罚球，拿下 83 分。

虽然阿德巴约的表现并没有创造 NBA 单场得分最高纪录（该纪录仍由威尔特·张伯伦 (Wilt Chamberlain) 和他在 1962 年单场得分 100 分保持着），但他确实超越了洛杉矶湖人队 (Los Angeles Lakes) 偶像科比·布莱恩特 (Kobe Bryant)，跃居历史得分榜第二位。这让许多球迷和游戏专家感到困扰。

在完成一生难忘的表演后的几个小时里，阿德巴约受到了来自世界各地的大量爱。然而，也有相当一部分 NBA 球迷和专家并不喜欢他破纪录的夜晚。最大的争议点是他的罚球次数——科比在他的81分比赛中罚球20次——以及热火队如何通过在比赛后期犯规来帮助他获得83分，从而为阿德巴约带来更多得分机会。

帕特·莱利回击巴姆·阿德巴约的仇恨者

热火主席帕特·莱利（Pat Riley）认为阿德巴约受到的仇恨只是一堆废话。这位传奇教练和高管在周六向那些仇恨者发泄了不满。

“这都是公牛***，”莱利告诉迈阿密先驱报。 “确实如此。任何对此持消极态度的人，任何对此持愤世嫉俗态度的人，任何以消极方式谈论这件事的人，他们都在试图获得观看次数、点击率，或者他们是播客，这就是他们的工作。

“今天有一些批评者对战术上的情况非常不公正，我们被犯规了，他们也被犯规了。当威尔特·张伯伦当天拿下100分时，同样的事情也发生在他身上，”他补充道。 “但我不相信这些。他们采取了标志性的、绝对令人难以置信的表演，但他们试图忽视它。这不公平。”

迈阿密——迈阿密热火队周围的热议话题是巴姆·阿德巴约在周二砍下 83 分，超越科比·布莱恩特的 81 分，成为 NBA 历史上得分第二高的比赛，毫无疑问它产生了影响。无论是社交媒体上关于热火队队长83分之夜的“道德”讨论的影响，周四热火队以112-105战胜密尔沃基雄鹿队的比赛中都感受到了这种影响。

对阵雄鹿队的胜利标志着迈阿密队的第七场连胜，也是球队本赛季最长的连胜纪录，此前阿德巴约在周二对阵奇才队的历史性夜晚。阿德巴约在比赛中明显地感到气喘吁吁，这是可以理解的，尽管他最终仍然拿下 21 分和 8 个篮板。

埃里克·斯波尔斯特拉称对阵雄鹿队的比赛是“我们最令人印象深刻的胜利之一”

然而，正如主教练埃里克·斯波尔斯特拉所说，阿德巴约的表现“鼓舞人心”，在佩尔·拉尔森的出色表现下，他带领球队艰难战胜了密尔沃基雄鹿队，其中包括职业生涯最高的28分。

“我认为这是我们本赛季最令人印象深刻的胜利之一，”斯波尔斯特拉说。 “进入这个项目，你要确保你的情绪和精神电池都充满了活力。但是很自然地，有些事情会让你没有足够的动力。我们在会议和演练中谈到的是，我们需要让一些人站出来，也许一些X因素，带来一些不同的东西。巴姆，他那天晚上所做的事情是如此鼓舞人心。它只是提高了我们团队中每个人的水平。有时你需要激励激励者，你知道，激励激励者。”

当被问及热火队可怕的胜利时，特别是在周二一场激动人心的比赛之后，埃里克·斯波尔斯特拉谈到了佩尔·拉尔森和卡斯帕拉斯·雅库西奥尼斯。

“我认为这是我们本赛季最令人印象深刻的胜利之一……他们都很棒……” #热力国家 pic.twitter.com/MukvJbWh6K

斯波尔斯特拉称这是一场“非常好的团队胜利”，他承认迈阿密队的“进攻活力”不如以往，这可能是由于周二晚上情绪低落所致。尽管如此，热火仍会在防守上表现出色，以保住雄鹿队的优势，尽管扬尼斯·阿德托昆博最终拿下 31 分。

阿德巴约和热火队希望重回正轨，并在周六晚上对阵奥兰多魔术队的比赛中全力以赴。

SAN FRANCISCO — Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr couldn’t believe the buzz surrounding Bam Adebayo’s historic 83-point game against the Washington Wizards, the second-most in NBA history.

“Is this a thing? People aren’t giving him credit for scoring 83.” [points]Kerr asked the room when told that a good portion of fans, reporters and analysts across the league have vilified Adebayo, the Miami Heat and the way Erik Spoelstra got to that incredible feat.

Amid the discussion surrounding Bam Adebayo’s 83-point game, Steve Kerr echoed Erik Spoelstra’s comments:

“I respect what Spo said. There’s no need to apologize, he was doing it for his team and I respect that.”

– Kenzo Fukuda (@kenzofuku) 14 March 2026

Opponents have cited Adebayo’s record-breaking 43 free throws, the way the Heat fouled the Wizards to get the ball back, and the fact that Spoelstra left his man in a blowout game to chase the record, as reasons why Adebayo’s 83 points should come with an asterisk. But it seems like Kerr is on the other side of the discussion, as he had nothing but praise for the player he coached during the 2020 and 2024 Olympics.

“It’s pretty amazing. I mean, what an incredible accomplishment,” Kerr said. “And he’s not even really a scorer. He’s an incredible player. But he wouldn’t be top of mind to score that many points. So just feels like a bizarre evening. I didn’t watch the game, we were playing so I saw some of the high highlights, but it was one of those physical experiences, and it seemed like the team was totally engaged and enjoying it.”

Steve Kerr supports Adebayo and Spoelstra’s defense

In recent days, since the historic night, Adebayo and Spoelstra have been dogged by questions about the ethics of the strategies they employed to help Adebayo score 83 points.

Adebayo called the haters “sofa coaches” and defended his performance.

“If you get that close to chasing greatness, that’s the point of chasing it, so you can overcome it,” Adebayo said. “And some people have never played basketball.”

Meanwhile, Spoelstra strongly supported Adebayo, calling out detractors in a lengthy response to the Miami media.

“I think most of the people who probably made comments didn’t watch the game. It’s ‘irresponsible’ or ‘immoral,'” Spoelstra said. “And I would do it again 10 times out of 10 for Bam, I’m not apologizing to anyone about that.”

Spoelstra won’t have to apologize to Kerr because the Dubs coached his longtime friend and coaching contemporary.

“I think every coach has to face that — himself and his own circumstances,” Kerr said. “I think the whole team was pleading to keep Spo [Adebayo] Out there. And it’s really tricky. As a coach, you may feel awkward.”

Steve Kerr references his feelings

Kerr recalled a similar experience to Spoelstra and Adebayor, when he passed Klay Thompson against the Chicago Bulls to set the record for most 3-pointers in a game on October 29, 2018.

With the Warriors up by 41 with 4:53 left in the third quarter, Thompson hit his 14th triple to tie the record. But before that point, Kerr had dismissed all the starters and left Thompson to chase the feat. But that pursuit led to shot-chucking, a context lost over time, as Thompson missed four consecutive 3-pointers in the process.

“I let him go because I wanted him to get the record,” Kerr said. “The team wanted him to get the record. And it was a little weird, sure, I felt bad that he was launching shots. Luckily, he made one. I think he missed his first three quarters, and he was just launching every time, and he made his fourth. And I couldn’t get him out fast enough. But it worked out. Everybody was happy, but yeah, it’s weird. There’s a lot of mouths to feed, a lot of people to think about in those situations. Are.”

With Kerr’s experience with record-chasing players and teams, he had no trouble with Spoelstra’s defense.

“But I respect what Spo said. There’s no need to apologize. He was doing it for his team and I respect that.”

迈阿密热火队球星巴姆·阿德巴约砍下 83 分，超越科比·布莱恩特，成为 NBA 历史上第二高的个人比赛得分，其后果与这一壮举本身一样引人入胜。对于阿德巴约的历史性成就，人们的反应不乏好的和坏的。

尽管NBA界有很多人赞扬阿德巴约的表现，但也有越来越多的声音对这场比赛提出质疑，并且无论出于何种原因认为它应该在比赛中打上星号。

周四，热火队对阵密尔沃基雄鹿队的比赛结束后，阿德巴约本人猛烈抨击了那些认为他 83 分表现有污点的批评者。

事实是，阿德巴约现在单场得分第二高，仅次于张伯伦的100分。达到70分以上的球员不在少数，包括现役球员乔尔·恩比德、德文·布克、达米安·利拉德、多诺万·米切尔和卢卡·东契奇，以及前球员张伯伦、埃尔金·贝勒、大卫·汤普森和大卫·罗宾逊。

阿德巴约对阵雄鹿队的比赛比上一场比赛要低迷一些，他在 35 分钟内只得到 21 分。这位热火球星还表示，短期内不太可能再拿下一场80分的比赛。

MIAMI – Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo scored 83 points Tuesday night to surpass Kobe Bryant’s 81 for the second-highest scoring game in NBA history, no doubt polarizing reactions. While the 83 points scored by the Heat’s face of the franchise in Adebayo was labeled “unethical” by some in the sports world, the star himself has hit back at some of the talking points.

Those online who have questioned the ethics of the 83-point game have pointed to the 43 free-throw attempts by Adebayo or Miami intentionally committing fouls and missing free throws to save time or gain more possessions. Some have even said that Adebayo should have checked before passing Bryant to show respect.

“I’m like, ‘Listen, I’m a Kobe fan. I got close to his record. What do you think I’m going to do? Try to break it?’ I’m pretty sure if I had 81 and Kobe was on his way, he wouldn’t be like, ‘You know, I’m going to check myself out with nine minutes left, but I got 70.’ Stay serious,” Adebayo said after Thursday’s 112-105 win over the Milwaukee Bucks.

Heat’s Bam Adebayo on his “pinch-me moment”

Whether people debate whether or not the Heat star’s 83-point night was unethical, no one can take that moment away from the 28-year-old. Adebayo will delve into how it’s been a “pinch-me moment” since Tuesday night’s historic game.

“The last 48 hours, it’s kind of…I’m surprised by myself,” Adebayo said after recording 21 points and eight rebounds in a win over Milwaukee on Thursday. “Because someone will ask, ‘What’s my career at the highest level?’ You are 83 years old. And it’s not like the YMCA, this is the highest level of basketball…it’s still a happy moment for me. And, as Kobe said, ‘You’ve got to stay in shape. You have to have a lot of stamina, stay in shape and really grab it.’ And I understand it now, because the next game is what you have to worry about.”

At any rate, Adebayo and Miami will now look to extend their seven-game winning streak against the Orlando Magic on Saturday.

MIAMI – It’s been days since Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo made history by scoring 83 points against the Washington Wizards on Tuesday night, causing a lot of buzz in the sports world. As much as there is a part of the debate that questions the ethics of the 83 points scored by the Heat captain in Adebayo, no one can take away that historic night from the big man, as he spoke about the future of this type of game.

Speaking after Miami’s 112-105 win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday, extending the team’s winning streak to seven, he would talk about the attention he is getting because of his 83-point outing, the second-highest scoring game in history.

Having only surpassed Wilt Chamberlain’s 100 points in 1962 and Kobe Bryant’s 81 points in 2006, Adebayo may be feeling like he doesn’t think “anyone will ever do that again.”

“I mean, you’re surrounded by eyes, because everybody wants to see if you can do it again, which is crazy, because I don’t think anybody will do it again, but you just have to turn the page,” Adebayo said after recording 21 points and eight rebounds against the Bucks. “You see people yelling 83 at you, and you just start living in the moment. And then, usually when you get into the game, you kind of forget where you are and lose yourself throughout the game.”

Bam Adebayo is in the spotlight after scoring 83 points on Tuesday:

Heat’s Bam Adebayo on ’emotional rollercoaster’

While Adebayo celebrates scoring 83 points despite the polarizing reaction from the Heat center, he will talk about continuing the performance as he leads the team to wins.

“An emotional roller coaster, and understand why,” Adebayo said. “But obviously to be able to move on to the next game, get a win, and approach it in a different way. It wasn’t 83 tonight, it was 21, so if anyone is upset? I don’t care, but we got the W, that’s all that matters.”

当关于迈阿密热火队球星巴姆·阿德巴约在周二晚上对阵华盛顿奇才队的比赛中拿下 83 分创造历史的讨论仍在继续时，目睹这一幕的人之一就是他的 WNBA 超级巨星阿贾·威尔逊的搭档。虽然体育界可以就阿德巴约拿下 83 分的热火队长的道德问题展开争论，但没有人能夺走这一里程碑，威尔逊在周四晚上充分展示了这一里程碑。

威尔逊将出席周四迈阿密热火队以 112-105 战胜密尔沃基雄鹿队的比赛，她代表阿德巴约取得了这一成就。随后，阿德巴约拿下 83 分，排在科比·布莱恩特（81 分）和威尔特·张伯伦（100 分）之后，成为第二高分，威尔逊用表情符号显示了顺序。

“我知道他说我是他的灵感来源，”威尔逊说。 “但我认为他不知道他在多大程度上激励了我继续做我自己。”

“我看到他投入了无数的时间，我看到了清晨的训练、质疑、自我怀疑，我看到了这一切，”威尔逊继续说道。 “我很感激上帝对他来说真的非常特别。上帝不会玩弄巴姆。”

MIAMI – There’s no denying the sports world is buzzing about Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo, who scored 83 points against the Washington Wizards on Tuesday night, surpassing Kobe Bryant’s 81 points to become the second-highest scoring game in a game. While there is debate about the “ethics” of the Heat captain’s 83-point outing, the big man himself spoke about the play after Miami’s 112-105 win over the Milwaukee Bucks.

Adebayo’s 83-point night drew polarizing reactions, from the center celebrating to making incredible NBA history, with the other side questioning the performance due to a myriad of factors, especially in the fourth quarter. Whether it’s the 43 free-throw attempts or Miami’s strategy of passing the game to gain more possessions, these have been some talking points.

There has also been discussion about whether Adebayo should have surpassed Bryant’s mark in starts, saying that instead of making history, he would have taken himself out of the game. Adebayo will have a message for the “couch coach”, touching on every criticism of the 83-point game, mentioning Washington’s poor defense, and aiming to surpass Bryant’s milestone.

“First of all, you all are blaming me; you should blame their head coach,” Adebayo told ClutchPoints. “Get it first. I wasn’t going to let one go the whole game until I had 70. Then you started sending the double. At that point, I got 70 with, like, what, nine minutes left in the game. Do you think I’m not going for that?”

“And that’s the thing that’s crazy,” Adebayo continued. “When they talk about the unethical part of basketball. I’m like, I’ve got nine minutes left now. Who would be like, you know, coach, just take me out. Yeah, OK! There’s somebody in my spot who’s got nine minutes left? One minute? OK. Nine? Yeah, I’m going for it. You can’t be mad at that. If you’re mad, I don’t care.”

Had to ask Bam Adebayo about people questioning the “ethics” of his 83-point game.

Heat’s Bam Adebayo on 43 free-throw attempts in 83-point game

With Adebayo scoring 83 points and the Heat having a broader impact on a franchise making league history, the impact of Thursday’s win over the Bucks can’t be denied. Adebayo would still make his presence felt in the contest, scoring 21 points with eight rebounds, but one could tell the fatigue was emotionally and physically draining on Tuesday.

For 21 points, he shot six of 20 from the field and missed all five of his three-point attempts, but it was the fourth quarter that turned his night around. Entering the final frame with eight points, he scored a crucial 13 points, making nine of 12 from the free-throw line, helping Pelle Larsson finish with a career night with a total of 28 points.

It was certainly a quiet game for Adebayo, who made 43 shots, 22 from deep and 43 free-throw attempts on Tuesday, the most in association history. Adebayo continued the criticism, saying he was “being humiliated every time”, which the film proves.

“Because a lot of guys, they’re upset because if they played, they never would have had a chance to get close to chasing greatness,” Adebayo said. “And if you get that close to chasing greatness, that’s the point of chasing it, so you can surpass it. And some guys have never played basketball.”

“They’re going to talk about free throws. It’s not like I shoot 15 free throws a game,” Adebayo added. “It’s not like I averaged 10 free throws a game. I was, you can watch the film, I was legitimately getting fouled every time I went to the free-throw line.”

At any rate, Adebayo’s 83-point game will continue to be talked about, but for now the main focus is on Miami as they look to extend their seven-game winning streak (a season-high) with a crucial game on Saturday night against the Orlando Magic.

It was back to regular programming for the Miami Heat on Thursday night, as Bam Adebayo recorded just 21 points in their 112-105 win over the Milwaukee Bucks after scoring the second-most points in a game (83 points) in association history. No one realistically expected Adebayo to reach such heights on Tuesday against the Washington Wizards, and the performance he delivered against the Bucks on this night far exceeds what is expected of him to perform on a nightly basis.

Undoubtedly, Adebayo is the talk of the town, because what he did against the Wizards was amazing and impossible to believe. And even though the Bucks lost, they poked a little fun at the fact that Adebayo scored 62 fewer points on Thursday than he did on Tuesday, which is a feat for a struggling Milwaukee team.

The official post on X after the Bucks’ loss read, “The Bombs did not score 83 points.”

What followed was a response from the Heat social media team, with the Bucks dropping the mic with a brutal response to Adebayo.

“Wasn’t needed…obviously…” the Heat’s response reads.

This was not needed… clearly… https://t.co/3zWswkYKjw

Heat still get win after Bam Adebayo comes back to earth

The true testament to the talent of the Heat culture is that there is a clear unselfishness that defines the team, especially with some of their key guys like Tyler Herro, Andrew Wiggins and Norman Powell all battling injuries.

On Thursday, it was Pelle Larsson who had the time of his life; Although he didn’t drop anything close to 83 points, he did score 28 points for himself, the best number of his career. The Heat continue to produce quality players left and right, the ultimate effect of their renowned culture.

周二，埃德里斯·“巴姆”·阿德巴约 (Edrice “Bam” Adebayo) 在对阵华盛顿奇才队 (Washington Wizards) 的比赛中轰下历史性的 83 分，篮球界仍在为之震惊。虽然一些纯粹主义者在过去的 48 小时里争论他的表现是否符合道德，并指出了 NBA 纪录的 43 次罚球尝试和比赛后期的故意犯规，但这位迈阿密热火队中锋在周四晚上表明，他不需要哨子就能得分。

在对阵密尔沃基雄鹿队的第一节初期，阿德巴约用身体上的“道德”终结平息了批评者的声音，这种终结需要裁判的零帮助。在卡塞亚中心的前几个回合中，这位明星大个子抓住了球，直接冲向了密尔沃基强大的防守。

尽管扬尼斯·阿德托昆博和奥斯曼·迪昂在内线与他进行了双打，阿德巴约还是通过接触投进了一个艰难的、有争议的两分球。这是他继科比·布莱恩特成为 NBA 历史上单场得分第二高之后的首个投篮得分。

— NBA 澳大利亚 (@NBA_AU) 2026 年 3 月 13 日

这个序列是对外界噪音的完美回应。批评者猛烈抨击了这个83分的夜晚，因为阿德巴约43投20中，罚球36次。除了巨额得分外，他在 42 分钟内还贡献了 9 个篮板、3 次助攻和 2 次盖帽。

然而，迈阿密热火队主教练埃里克·斯波尔斯特拉在开球前不想听到任何消息。他告诉记者，他绝对不会为他的队长如何达到这一里程碑而向任何人道歉。斯波尔斯特拉强调，当球员拿到70分时，“不成文的规则”就会消失，称这个夜晚是一个神奇的时刻。

阿德巴约在对阵雄鹿的比赛中表现更加平衡，但同样至关重要。他帮助热火队以112-105获胜，取得六连胜。虽然他没有重复周二第一节拿下 31 分的表现，但他的出现稳定了热火队。迈阿密队本赛季战绩升至 37 胜 29 负，而雄鹿队则跌至 27 胜 37 负。

週二，埃德里斯“巴姆”阿德巴約 (Edrice “Bam” Adebayo) 在對陣華盛頓奇才隊 (Washington Wizards) 的比賽中轟下歷史性的 83 分，籃球界仍在為之震驚。雖然一些純粹主義者在過去的 48 小時裡爭論他的表現是否符合道德，並指出了 NBA 紀錄的 43 次罰球嘗試和比賽後期的故意犯規，但這位邁阿密熱火隊中鋒在周四晚上表明，他不需要哨子就能得分。

在對陣密爾瓦基公鹿隊的第一節初期，阿德巴約用身體上的「道德」終結平息了批評者的聲音，這種終結需要裁判的零幫助。在卡塞亞中心的前幾個回合中，這位明星大個子抓住了球，直接衝向了密爾瓦基強大的防守。

儘管揚尼斯·阿德托昆博和奧斯曼·迪昂在內線與他進行了雙打，阿德巴約還是通過接觸投進了一個艱難的、有爭議的兩分球。這是他繼科比布萊恩成為 NBA 歷史上單場得分第二高之後的首個投籃得分。

這個序列是對外界噪音的完美回應。批評者猛烈抨擊了這個83分的夜晚，因為阿德巴約43投20中，罰球36次。除了巨額得分外，他在 42 分鐘內還貢獻了 9 個籃板、3 次助攻和 2 次蓋帽。

然而，邁阿密熱火隊主教練埃里克·斯波爾斯特拉在開球前不想聽到任何消息。他告訴記者，他絕對不會為他的隊長如何達到這一里程碑而向任何人道歉。史波斯查強調，當球員拿到70分時，「不成文的規則」就會消失，稱這個夜晚是一個神奇的時刻。

迈阿密——迈阿密热火队球星巴姆·阿德巴约在球队以 150-128 战胜华盛顿奇才队的比赛中拿下 83 分，创造了 NBA 历史，超越科比·布莱恩特的 81 分，成为历史第二高得分比赛，但人们的讨论却两极分化。随着 NBA 世界对热火队长 83 分之夜的反应，也出现了一些阻力，有人说比赛旁边应该有一个星号，有人则质疑道德，这得到了主教练埃里克·斯波尔斯特拉的回应。

不可否认，阿德巴约度过了一个特别的夜晚，他在华盛顿队的统治级表现中拿下 83 分，将自己的名字铭刻在 NBA 历史上，其程度是前所未见的。然而，人们指出了43次罚球、球队故意犯规以获得更多控球权以及其他破坏夜晚的情况。

如果有一个词在社交媒体上流传，将阿德巴约的比赛与 2006 年科比的比赛进行比较，有人会说其中一个比另一个更“道德”。对于斯波尔斯特拉来说，许多就此事发声的人并没有关注历史，称这本身就是“不道德的”。

“我认为大多数可能发表评论的人都没有观看比赛，这是不负责任或不道德的，”斯波尔斯特拉对 ClutchPoints 说道。 “你甚至不了解比赛的背景，就像这是一场 13 分的比赛。我记得在我叫了暂停后回到了人群中，然后 [Assistant coach Chris Quinn] 说，“嘿，我们必须赢得这场比赛，就像我们在追逐什么东西一样，这很棒，但我们必须赢得这场比赛。”

“这是一场 13 分的比赛，有 9 分，还有机会，然后砰的一声，我们连续投进三个三分……然后他的总得分继续上升。如果你想说的话，我想说，一切都相当传统，直到最后两分钟，然后我们可以在这两分钟内自主地做任何我们想做的事情，无论人们认为这是纯粹的还是道德的。对于巴姆、这支球队和这座城市来说，这是多么壮观的时刻。”

热火队球员埃里克·斯波尔斯特拉：“我不会向任何人道歉”

周二晚上的言论五花八门，《The Athletic》的一名记者萨姆·阿米克甚至表示，热火中锋阿德巴约应该在打破科比的记录之前退出比赛，以尊重他的遗产。在可预见的未来，这种讨论仍将继续，斯波尔斯特拉将加倍努力，帮助阿德巴约创造协会历史。

“我不在乎，我不会因为别人的言论而失眠，”斯波尔斯特拉说道。 “什么是道德的？什么是不道德的？对三分射手犯规吗？这是否道德？对一个糟糕的罚球手犯规并获得额外的财产，你知道与否？就像所有这些事情发生在两分钟之内，他已经打破了一系列记录，我们将继续努力。成为其中的一部分真是一个奇妙的时刻。”

“如果再为巴姆做这件事，十次中有十次我会这么做，我不会为此向任何人道歉，”斯波尔斯特拉继续说道。 “我为巴姆感到太棒了，因为他所做的一切都是正确的，你知道。在我们的演练中，他已经在谈论防守了，我们必须让我们的防守做好今晚摇滚的准备。但作为一名领导者，那天晚上，你知道，为了为那场比赛定下基调，那些比赛可能会很棘手。我认为这是领导力的化身，然后它就从那里开始了，它就像滚下山的雪球一样。”

随着人们对效率的质疑，这可能更证明有些人没有关注比赛，阿德巴约在第一节拿下 31 分，上半场拿下 43 分，投篮命中率为 54% (13/24)，三分命中率为 45% (5/11)。

整个三节比赛中，他投篮命中率为 49%（17/35），命中率达到 62 分，最后一帧成为了罚球者的亮点，尽管奇才队的防守很差，无法阻止阿德巴约。无论如何，没有人可以从阿德巴约那里得知，他已经巩固了自己在伟大球员中的地位，因为他希望带领迈阿密队进入周四对阵密尔沃基雄鹿队及其他球队的比赛。

Some NBA history was made last night when Bam Adebayo exploded for 83 points. As he continues to recover from injury, the Pacers’ Tyrese Haliburton explained how Adebayo’s 83 point-game helped him believe the fact that Wilt Chamberlain had 100 points in a game.

“Wilt Chamberlain 100… I don’t know if I believed it or not… but after what I saw yesterday… Wilt had 100”

Haliburton was considering the belief that Chamberlain did not reach 100 points. But after seeing Adebayo, he believed it. Adebayo’s 83 points generated some controversy, particularly regarding how he did it. But it was still an amazing feat that was almost unheard of in 2026. Most of the NBA watched Adebayo and contemplated the game, and Haliburton had time to observe as he continued to recover.

Haliburton’s discomfort worsened during Game 7 of the NBA Finals. Since then, he has been forced to watch the rest of the NBA while he recovers. The Pacers are currently 15-50, which is the worst record in the NBA. Assuming Haliburton is able to return next season, he could have a top draft pick in the future. Meanwhile, the Miami Heat are in sixth place in the Eastern Conference while attempting to make some noise.

Adebayo played the best game of his career in a blowout win over the Washington Wizards. As everyone talks about this career game, it also put Adebayo’s name in the history books. He is currently third on the Heat in scoring. That’s what makes this monster game so amazing. As Adebayo comes out on top in this game, he will look to continue leading the Heat to victory as they host the Milwaukee Bucks in their next matchup.

The NBA world continues to react to Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo’s spectacular 83-point performance. As NBA players and coaches continue to share their insights about the game, even the best players are not holding back.

On Wednesday night, the LA Clippers defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 153-128, led by a 45-point effort from Kawhi Leonard. In his 32 minutes of play, Kawhi scored 45 points, grabbed five rebounds, dished out five assists, and missed only five of his 30 total shot attempts on the night.

After the game, Leonard was asked about Bam Adebayo scoring 83 points, and he gave a very Kawhi Leonard answer.

“I haven’t had a chance to see it, but it’s amazing,” Leonard said. “He’s a hard-working guy, getting better every year. It’s something to see. I’m happy for him.”

Bam Adebayo finished his historic night by scoring 83 points with nine rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocked shots in 42 minutes of play. Adebayo shot 20 of 43 from the field, 7 of 22 from three and 36 of 43 from the free throw line.

With the points total, Adebayo passed Kobe Bryant for the second-highest scoring game in NBA history, trailing only Wilt Chamberlain.

Bam Adebayo has set a new record for the second-highest scoring game in NBA history, surpassing Kobe Bryant.

Leonard was one of the few NBA superstars who has had incredible performances. Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo praised Adebayo for the effort and dismissed any notion that Adebayo’s play was not impressive.

“It’s unbelievable,” Antetokounmpo said after the Bucks’ home loss to the Suns on Wednesday night. “83 is incredible. It says a lot about his hard work. I haven’t seen the game yet, I have to see the game. He took 43 free throws? It doesn’t matter how you got there. What matters is that you got it. Like 10, 20, 30 years from now, no one will remember how many free throw shots he shot. I don’t think I remember how many shots Kobe shot or how many free throws he made or Three. You don’t remember that, Wilt.

“At the end of the day, he got 83 points. Amazing way to help his team win. I know his family and close friends are extremely excited and happy for him. The game reflects his hard work. I know that Bam, he works hard every day, never cheats the game. It’s incredible to see a guy like him do that.”

Even Kevin Durant, who spent time with Adebayo during Team USA’s Olympic gold medal run in 2024, expressed his interest in the Heat star having a big scoring night.

“I couldn’t believe it when I heard it in real time,” the Houston Rockets star said Wednesday. “It seems like he got 30 in the first quarter. Congratulations to Bam. I know how much he works. I looked at the stat sheet, it’s crazy. He had 40 shots, 40 free throws, 20 threes. It takes a lot of stamina, a lot of energy to make those shots and then make them, set a record, surpass Kobe as the second-highest scorer in the history of the game. Congratulations to him. That’s a huge accomplishment to be talking about.” I’ll always keep talking.”

Bam Adebayo’s big night will surely have more players speaking out as he continues to be asked about it, but one thing is for sure: NBA stars and the Miami Heat star’s teammates are excited for the new, second-best scorer in NBA history.

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo made headlines after dropping 83 points in their win over the Washington Wizards at Cassia Center on Tuesday. Adebayo immediately became the biggest story in sports, as many were in disbelief at his unique accomplishment.

Even the GOAT, who has chosen to stay away from the spotlight, took notice.

Many congratulated Adebayo for setting the second-highest scoring game in league history, but arguably the most important of them was none other than NBA legend Michael Jordan.

In an interview with ESPN, Adebayo revealed what Jordan told him during the five-time MVP contacted.

“Just congratulations. Very brief. Short and sweet. You know Mike. He’s not talking much,” Adebayo said.

When “his alter ego” moves forward to welcome you, you definitely know you have done something special.

Jordan is quite familiar with Adebayo, as Adebayo is one of the top endorsers of Jordan Brand. He even wore yet-to-be-released Air Jordans against the Wizards.

Some people decried Adebayo’s crazy act. NBA icon Robert Horry said it should have an asterisk because Adebayo shot 43 free throws and “didn’t respect the game.” Meanwhile, Philadelphia 76ers forward Kelly Oubre Jr. claimed that Adebayo was not efficient in scoring 83 points.
Others said Adebayo was merely stat-padding.

However, it cannot be denied that the 28-year-old Adebayo has achieved a rare feat. He still had to make those shots and put in the work. No amount of criticism will erase the fact that Adebayo has rewritten history.

Plus, it already has the Jordanian seal of approval.

周二，迈阿密热火队中锋巴姆·阿德巴约在卡塞亚中心战胜华盛顿奇才队的比赛中拿下 83 分，成为各大媒体的头条新闻。阿德巴约立即成为体育界最大的新闻人物，因为许多人对他的突如其来的壮举感到难以置信。

即使是选择远离聚光灯的山羊也注意到了这一点。

许多人祝贺阿德巴约创下联盟历史第二高得分，但其中最重要的无疑是 NBA 传奇人物迈克尔·乔丹。

在接受 ESPN 采访时，阿德巴约透露了乔丹在五次获得 MVP 时对他说的话 伸出手。

“恭喜你。非常简短。简短而甜蜜。你了解迈克。他话不多，”阿德巴约说。

当“他的空气”特意向你打招呼时，你肯定知道你做了一些特别的事情。

乔丹对阿德巴约非常熟悉，因为后者是乔丹品牌的顶级代言人之一。他甚至在对阵奇才队的比赛中穿着尚未发布的 Air Jordan 球鞋。

一些人质疑阿德巴约的疯狂壮举。 NBA 偶像罗伯特·霍里表示，它应该有一个星号，因为阿德巴约罚球 43 次，而且“比赛没有得到尊重”。与此同时，费城76人队前锋小凯利·乌布雷声称阿德巴约没有高效地得到83分。
其他人则表示阿德巴约只是在填充数据。

无论如何，不​​可否认的是，28岁的阿德巴约实现了一个罕见的里程碑。他仍然必须投篮并投入工作。再多的批评也抹杀不了阿德巴约改写历史的事实。

此外，它已经得到了乔丹的认可。

3 月 11 日星期二，迈阿密热火队的巴姆·阿德巴约在对阵华盛顿奇才队的比赛中拿下 83 分，这是历史性的一晚，但这位 NBA 球星将这一切归功于他的女友、WNBA 球星阿贾·威尔逊。

在赛后新闻发布会上，阿德巴约感谢了在场观看他历史性壮举的威尔逊。

“她抱怨我是怎么得到 10,000 分的，还想让我等一下，这样才能得到 83 分。” [points] 她在这里的第一场比赛非常特别，”阿德巴约告诉媒体。

威尔逊不仅在场与阿德巴约一起见证了这个神奇的夜晚，以 83 分创造了 NBA 历史上得分第二高的比赛，他还将阿德巴约为他所做的一切归功于她。

“幕后、训练和对话都非常激励人心。显然，你看到她所做的事情，你每天都会从中受到启发，”他在谈到女友时补充道。 “我很感激她出现在我的生活中。”

阿德巴约击败了他的篮球偶像、已故的科比·布莱恩特，科比·布莱恩特此前单场得到81分，仅次于1962年威尔特·张伯伦的100分，位居第二。

“威尔特，我，然后是科比，”阿德巴约赛后说道。 “听起来很疯狂。”

“对我来说，就是保持冷静，保持锁定并理解我可以去做一些特别的事情，”阿德巴约说。 “我没想到会是第 83 场比赛。但能拥有这一刻是超现实的，因为就像我说的，伙计，能够在家里、在我妈妈面前、在我的人民面前、在主场球迷面前做到这一点，这是历史上的一个印记，将永远被铭记。”

阿德巴约以令人印象深刻的数据结束了当晚的比赛：投篮43投20中，罚球线43投36中，三分球22投7中。

While the Miami Heat’s Bam Adebayo had a historic night by scoring 83 points against the Washington Wizards on Tuesday, March 11, the NBA star is giving credit to his girlfriend, WNBA star A’Ja Wilson.

During a press conference after the game, Adebayo made sure to thank Wilson who was present to witness his historic feat.

“She was complaining about how I got 10,000 points and she wanted me to wait until I got 83 points. [points] “His first game here is very special,” Adebayo told the press.

Wilson was not only present to witness that magical night when Adebayo had the second-highest scoring game in NBA history with 83 points, but he also credits him for everything he did for him.

He said of his girlfriend, “The behind-the-scenes footage, the workouts and the conversations are very inspiring. Obviously, you see what she does and you’re inspired by her every day.” “I’m grateful to have her in my life.”

Adebayo beat his basketball idol, the late Kobe Bryant, who had previously scored 81 points in a single game and ranked No. 2 behind Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game in 1962.

“Wilt, me, then Kobe,” Adebayo said after the game. “It sounds crazy.”

“For me, it was just staying calm, staying locked in and understanding that I could go on to do something special,” Adebayo said. “I didn’t think it was going to be 83. But to have this moment is surreal, because like I said, man, to be able to do it at home, in front of your mom, in front of your people, in front of the home fans, it’s a mark in history that will be remembered forever.”

Adebayo finished the night with impressive stats: 20 of 43 from the field, 36 of 43 from the foul line, 7 of 22 from 3-point range.

On Tuesday evening, the Philadelphia 76ers got back in the win column with a home win over the Memphis Grizzlies. The story of this game was point guard Cameron Payne, who scored 32 points on an astonishing 8-8 shot from beyond the three-point line, giving the 76ers a huge boost after recently signing there.

Unfortunately, Payne’s night, and everything that happened in the NBA on Tuesday, was overshadowed by Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo’s historic 83-point explosion in a blowout win over the Washington Wizards.

However, that wasn’t going to stop Payne from feeling himself after his historic game against Memphis.

“To be honest, I was worried about Cam Payne,” Cam Payne said to the ex, formerly of PhillyVoice, on Twitter, according to Adam Aronson. “Bombs can’t take over my night… March 10th, it’s all me.”

The Grizzlies controlled the game for most of the night before turning out their starters in a blatant tanking effort in the fourth quarter, after which Philadelphia immediately responded with a 20–2 run.

The 76ers learned earlier in the day that star guard Tyrese Maxey will be out of the lineup for at least three weeks after injuring his hand in a recent road loss to the Atlanta Hawks. Philadelphia has been declining in the rankings due to injury absences in recent weeks, with the team being overtaken by the Heat and falling into the play-in region as the season approaches its home stretch.

The 76ers will be desperately hoping that Joel Embiid will be able to return from injury at some point in the near future, and are also counting down the days until Paul George’s suspension ends.

In any case, the 76ers will next take the field on Thursday evening for a tough road game against the Detroit Pistons.

Regardless of how you feel about Bam Adebayo’s performance against the Washington Wizards on Tuesday night, he still recorded 83 points, the second-highest scoring game by a player in NBA history. It was an incredible moment and accomplishment for Adebayo and the Miami Heat, which is why many, including Giannis Antetokounmpo, will be paying tribute to the Heat star.

Because he was also playing well on Tuesday night, Giannis wasn’t really able to see live what was happening in South Beach on Tuesday night, when Adebayo passed Kobe Bryant’s 81-point mark and fell behind only Wilt Chamberlain on the all-time single-game scoring list. However, Antetokounmpo wants everyone to stop and appreciate what really happened.

More importantly, Giannis doesn’t want the stigma against Adebayo to continue.

“Unbelievable. Incredible. Says a lot about his hard work. I haven’t watched the game. I have to watch the game and see,” Antetokounmpo said of Adebayo’s 83-point game after the Milwaukee Bucks lost to the Phoenix Suns 129-114. “It doesn’t matter how you got it. It just means that you got it.”

“In 10, 20, 30 years from now, no one is going to remember how many free throws he shot. I don’t think I remember how many shots Kobe made, or how many free throws he made, or three. You just remember 81, 100. You don’t remember that, you know?”

“It doesn’t matter how you got there… 30 years from now, no one will remember how many free throws he shot… At the end of the day, he got 83 points.”

– ClutchPoints (@ClutchPoints) 11 March 2026

Unlike some players who used their platform to criticize Adebayo’s performance due to his free throws and hunting shots at the end of the game, Giannis Baum can’t respect what he did enough.

Although they may play on different teams and compete against each other in the Eastern Conference, what many people don’t know is that Antetokounmpo and Adebayo have a close relationship with each other. These two NBA All-Stars share the same agent, and they have great respect for each other.

That’s why Giannis Adebayo couldn’t be happier and he won’t tolerate any infamy coming his way.

Antetokounmpo added, “I know his family, his close friends, are extremely excited and happy for him.” “And again, it speaks volumes about his hard work. I know Bam. He works hard every day. He never cheats the game. And to see a guy like him do something like that is incredible.”

Interestingly enough, Adebayo and Antetokounmpo will be playing against each other on Thursday, which will be Bam’s first game after creating history with his 83-point performance.

While Giannis will be celebrating Adebayo’s accomplishment and congratulating him on the accomplishment, the Bucks star sent a humorous message to his friend in Miami ahead of this matchup.

“He’s going to score 82,” Giannis said with a smile. “So, we try our best for him to score 82, not 83.”

虽然很多 NBA 人士都在庆祝迈阿密热火队球星巴姆·阿德巴约 (Bam Adebayo) 历史性的 83 分，但很大一部分负面情绪却来自于洛杉矶湖人队和科比·布莱恩特 (Kobe Bryant) 的球迷。阿德巴约超越了科比的81分，前湖人队前锋、科比的前队友罗伯特·霍里对科比的表现并不感到兴奋。

在 Spectrum SportsNet 的一个节目中，罗伯特·霍里猛烈抨击了巴姆·阿德巴约的 83 分，并指出了他在热火队战胜华盛顿奇才队时实现这一历史性壮举的方式。

“83分令人印象深刻。但这已经到了你必须尊重比赛的地步。我认为这场比赛中有一些时刻没有得到尊重，”霍里说。 “83分已经很多了，我很欣赏他的努力，而且它将成为比赛中第二高的分数。但就像你总是说在某些事情上，它应该有一个星号，我在这一个上加一个星号。它仍然很多。我不会从巴姆那里拿走任何东西，它很多。“

霍里指的无疑是比赛最后热火队故意犯规，以延长比赛时间，获得额外的球权，帮助阿德巴约打破科比的纪录。

阿德巴约历史性的一夜使他成为个人得分第二高的球员，仅次于威尔特·张伯伦的 100 分。他现在是三名单场得分超过 80 分的球员之一。与此同时，还有一些球员的得分达到了70及以上，包括现任球员卢卡·东契奇、德文·布克、乔尔·恩比德、多诺万·米切尔和达米安·利拉德，以及前球员张伯伦、埃尔金·贝勒、大卫·罗宾逊和大卫·汤普森。

维克托·温班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 可能是 NBA 最好的球员之一，但他和我们所有人一样也是篮球迷。这就是为什么温比和世界各地的许多人一样，在周二晚上观看巴姆·阿德巴约 (Bam Adebayo) 为迈阿密热火队 (Miami Heat) 历史性地拿下 83 分的表现，这是 NBA 历史上得分第二高的比赛。

阿德巴约在周二晚上创造的历史吸引了 NBA 球员、工作人员和球迷的关注，引发了人们对他 83 分比赛的多种看法。

一些人，比如扬尼斯·阿德托昆博，对巴姆的表现表示敬意，声称这是一项“令人难以置信的”成就。也有人对这一表现不屑一顾，声称阿德巴约因为43次罚球而没有以正确的方式得到83分。

然后是温班亚马，他基本上对阿德巴约的做法不屑一顾，并且不会真正对 83 分发表意见。

“是的，我看到了，”温班亚马在周二晚上谈到阿德巴约的比赛时说道，然后长时间停顿。 “我们在一个充满灵感的联盟中打球。但是，是的，我看到了。”

“我认为我们正在一个有很多灵感值得尊敬的联盟中比赛……但是，是的，我看到了。”

当然，温班亚马以最温比的方式结束了他的回答，只是耸耸肩，然后继续讨论下一个问题，即圣安东尼奥马刺队以 125-116 战胜波士顿凯尔特人队，这使得马刺队的连胜场次扩大到了五场。

尽管他在新闻发布会上不像格雷格·波波维奇在马刺队效力的那些年那样充满活力或挑剔，但温班亚马从来都不是一个真正分享他对事物的全部想法的人。他倾向于对自己的伟大给出神秘的答案，这就是为什么我们不应该期待他在周二晚上对巴姆·阿德巴约的回答有任何不同。

也许温比对巴姆 83 分的表现有某种倾向，但他的回答是完美的，因为他明白自己的观点并不重要。阿德巴约拿下了83分，无论人们是否愿意接受，而对于温比来说，这样的表现对于他或者热刺的赛季影响为零。

这就是为什么他的回答简短而甜蜜，没有添加任何背景、挖掘或任何类似性质的内容。

温班亚马会以此作为追逐自己得分纪录的额外动力吗？这当然是可能的，但温比不会让别人的成就决定他的职业道路。

考虑到马刺队本赛季的成功和他自己的个人荣誉，温巴尼亚马比阿德巴约在热火队的出色表现更值得担心。因此，他对 Bam 83 分的回答和耸耸肩正是人们对 Wembanyama 的期望。

NBA 世界仍在关注迈阿密热火队的大个子巴姆·阿德巴约在球队战胜华盛顿奇才队的比赛中砍下历史性的 83 分，但并不是每个人都喜欢他。据《费城之声》的亚当·阿伦森报道，费城 76 人队后卫小凯利·乌布雷对巴姆·阿德巴约的壮举并没有留下深刻的印象，他认为他的费城队友乔尔·恩比德在他拿下 70 分时表现得更好。

“我只想说，乔尔做得更有效率，他在四分之三内就做到了，”乌布雷说。

乌布雷为队友挺身而出并没有什么问题，但值得指出的是，正如阿伦森指出的那样，乔尔·恩比德实际上​​是在第四节打出了70分的表现。

2024 年 1 月 22 日，恩比德在对阵圣安东尼奥马刺队的比赛中拿下 70 分。他全场41投24中（58.5%），三分线2投1中（50%），罚球线23投21中（91.3%），拿下70分。他打了37分钟。

相比之下，阿德巴约43投20中（46.5%），三分线22投7中（31.8%），罚球线43投36中（83.7%）。他打了42分钟。

乌布雷说恩比德的比赛比巴姆·阿德巴约更有效率，这是有道理的。但归根结底，83分就是83分。阿德巴约现在是NBA历史上第三位可以说单场得分超过80分的球员。

作为三届全明星球员，阿德巴约已成为热火队的基石之一。在拿下 83 分的大师级比赛后，他本赛季的场均得分从十几岁上升到了 20.0 分。

NBA 世界仍在關注邁阿密熱火隊的大個子巴姆·阿德巴約在球隊戰勝華盛頓奇才隊的比賽中砍下歷史性的 83 分，但並不是每個人都喜歡他。根據《費城之聲》的亞當·阿倫森報道，費城 76 人隊後衛小凱利·烏布雷對巴姆·阿德巴約的壯舉並沒有留下深刻的印象，他認為他的費城隊友喬爾·恩比德在他拿下 70 分時表現得更好。

「我只想說，喬爾做得更有效率，他在四分之三內就做到了，」烏布雷說。

On Tuesday evening, Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo had a night in the history books by scoring 83 points against the Washington Wizards, the second-most in NBA history. This historic game takes him ahead of Kobe Bryant, who scored 81 on the Toronto Raptors in January 2006, with only Wilt Chamberlain now surpassing him in scoring 100 points.

Adebayo has been in a highly publicized relationship with WNBA star A’Ja Wilson for some time now, and the reigning Finals MVP was in attendance to watch Adebayo torch the Wizards in Miami on Tuesday. In fact, according to a post by Legion Hoops on X, formerly Twitter, both Wilson and Adebayo now hold active scoring records for their respective leagues.

Sure, Adebayo scored 83 points in Tuesday’s loss to the Wizards, while Wilson scored 53 points against the Atlanta Dream in 2023.

Adebayo’s huge night has opened up a circle of discussion in the NBA world, with some believing that the method by which he scored 83 points, including over 40 free-throw attempts, and the team kept him in the game through garbage time in pursuit of the record, was not necessarily “ethical.”

However, years from now, fans will likely remember the landmark point, not the means by which it was achieved.

Meanwhile, the Heat’s win over the Wizards gave them their sixth consecutive win and moved them into a virtual tie with the Toronto Raptors for fifth place in the Eastern Conference. While this would be a stretch before the bracket tightens up to be able to reach as high as Miami, it’s still an impressive turnaround for a Heat team that hasn’t always been the model of consistency this season.

The Heat will next take the field on Thursday evening for a home game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 points on March 2, 1962. This is an NBA record and is considered one of the most unbreakable achievements in all of sports. Kobe Bryant was second on the single-game scoring list for a long time, as he scored 81 points on February 22, 2006. No one thought that this figure would also be crossed. Bam Adebayo did the unthinkable on March 10, 2026, dropping 83 points.

The Miami Heat center is a great player and one of the best in the league. However, he is far from the first player that fans would have guessed could have such an insane scoring game. In fact, Adebayo is probably more known for his defensive ability, and his career high was just 41 points before scoring 83 points.

The point is, if Adebayo can score 83 points, there are definitely other players who can surpass the 80-point threshold in the modern NBA. Perhaps Chamberlain’s 100-point record is not as secure as previously thought. So, which NBA players are most likely to score more than 80 points in a game in the next one?

Stephen Curry has a career high of 62 points. He’s an all-time great and arguably the best point guard of all time, but in reality, he’s probably past his peak. Because of that, since he has yet to score even 70 points in a game, he may not be able to do so at some point in the future. Still, the mathematics behind his game needs to be included in this list.

Curry is the best 3-point shooter in NBA history. Fans have seen him go hot many times before, and his 4,233 3-pointers in his career are 891 more than second place. Curry doesn’t just make wide-open ones. He gets up and makes shots from beyond the arc, and he can intercept long bombs off speed and go off balance to the point where defenders can’t really guard him; They just have to pray he misses.

Even at the age of 37, fans can expect a lot more amazing shooting performances from Curry, and perhaps he can take it to the next level after seeing Adebayo’s performance. It helps Curry’s case that he is more than just an outside shooter. He can get anywhere on the court with one of the best handles in NBA history, and he is well known for making circus shots, which will definitely help his 80-point goal. Curry has previously mentioned playing in a flow state, and if he just focused on scoring on the night he was unconscious, he could have scored 80 points.

Although they didn’t make this list, Joel Embiid, Damian Lillard and Donovan Mitchell have all crossed the 70-point threshold before, so they shouldn’t be counted out of scoring 80 points in a day. Anthony Edwards is already one of the best scorers in the league, and Nikola Jokic deserves praise as well.

While Shai Gilgeous-Alexander made a stronger claim than ever as the best player in the NBA by hitting the game-winning shot over the Denver Nuggets on March 9, Jokic is still viewed as the unanimous best player in basketball nearly half a decade on. Part of what makes him great is that he’s the best passing big man ever, and his unselfish nature will likely keep him from scoring 80 points. However, Jokic’s touch is unmatched.

He can punch his way under 80 points while hitting deep shots as one of the NBA’s best 3-point shooting bigs, while hitting one-legged slingshot somber shuffles that leave defenders with their hands over their faces in frustration. Again, Jokic’s passing ability means an 80-point performance is unlikely, but he may have the skill set to achieve it if he ever wants to, and a fellow center scoring 83 points in Adebayo only creates more realism for this possibility.

Curry’s former teammate Kevin Durant is also one of the greatest scorers in NBA history. In fact, many fans have voted him the greatest pure scorer of all time, with NBA GOAT Michael Jordan being the only player to give him a run for his money. Durant is reported to be 6 feet 9 inches tall, but in reality, he may be closer to 7 feet.

Despite this, there is no shot that Durant cannot make, which makes him truly vulnerable. He can score from mid-range, with his back to the basket, or from beyond the 3-point arc, and he hasn’t really stepped back since tearing his Achilles. Surprisingly, Durant has never even scored 60 points in a game.

His career-high in terms of scoring is just 55 points, as he has always focused on efficiency and never just conceded jack up shots. However, that doesn’t mean he isn’t one of the most likely players to score 80 points in a game. If Durant ever changes his mentality and wants to score as many points as possible, he has the scoring nature to go crazy, and there are not many players who can guard him.

In the event that Durant surpassed his career highs and defenses began to find a way to slow him down, he became too fast for the big men to guard him, and he could make his shot above most guards and wings. Durant’s 80-point game would be surprising considering he’s never gotten that close to that mark before, but it would be far less surprising than when Adebayo did it.

Devin Booker has been responsible for several all-time high-scoring games during his career. The most memorable thing is that the Phoenix Suns guard scored 70 points in 2017. His team wasn’t very good back then, which led to the Kentucky product getting the final nod. Sixty-plus, 70-plus, and now, 80-plus point scoring games were not as common then as they are becoming more so now, however, which required Booker to imitate Chamberlain and demonstrate his high scoring output in pencil on a piece of paper in the locker room after the game.

Booker is still an elite scorer after all these years. He is averaging 24.9 points per game this year due to an excellent mid-range shot and ability to go downhill and score in the painted area. Over the last few years, it didn’t seem like Booker would be able to surpass his own 70-point game, let alone score 80 points a night. This was because he shared the court with the aforementioned Durant as well as Bradley Beal.

Now with those two gone, Booker has a clear mandate to be the top option in Phoenix. The rest of his team is filled with serious role players who don’t mind doing the dirty work, so it’s not hard to imagine a game in which Booker takes a high volume of shots while his teammates do their best to create extra possessions and get him open looks.

Adebayo fell short of Chamberlain’s single-game scoring record, but he followed up several iconic performances by dropping 83 points on the Washington Wizards. Of course, there was Bryant’s aforementioned 81-point performance, but Chamberlain also had another iconic scoring game in which he scored 78 points. Adebayo also beat Luka Doncic’s 73-point performance to tie for fifth all-time.

Doncic has proven he can get close to scoring 80 points. He has a methodical style of play that is difficult to defend. Doncic gets up and makes shots from beyond the 3-point arc, and his step-back is one of the best moves in basketball. He also has some of the best touches in the league. Doncic currently leads the NBA in scoring with 32.5 points per game.

Additionally, LeBron James is nearing retirement, and once one of the greatest players in NBA history is retired, there will be even more shots for Doncic. Then again, maybe the Slovenian star will get to 80 points before his partner in crime retires. After all, James is an incredible playmaker who demands attention on defense, which will make life easier on Doncic.

There is no denying that Victor Vembanyama is the future of the NBA. The French star, who plays for the San Antonio Spurs, stands 7 feet 4 inches tall. On the one hand, this has quickly made him one of the best defenders in the NBA, and he could take home Defensive Player of the Year awards on a consistent basis.

However, Vembanyama is also a unicorn when it comes to crime. Despite his size, Vembanyama has guard-like skills. He can hit step-back jumpers, put the ball on the floor and create rebounds, and hit fadeaways and turnarounds. Of course, Vembanyama’s size allows him to score inside with ease, as he barely has to try to dunk over anyone.

It’s going to be a night where Vembanyama will have serious mismatches and opposing teams will be unable to stop him. In that case, Vembanyama could potentially score 80 points, which would indicate that the future is now.

The defending MVP is on his way to winning his second consecutive award for being the best player in the NBA after his elite performance in which he scored 35 points en route to hitting the game-winner against the Nuggets. Gilgeous-Alexander is in his fourth consecutive season averaging more than 30 points per game.

He led the league with 32.7 points per game last year and his 31.7 points per game this year are the second-most. If the Oklahoma City Thunder did not have the deepest rotation in the league, one has to imagine this figure would be much higher. The Thunder have 13 or 14 players who can be in each team’s 10-man rotation, which means there are plenty of players to feed off. If Gilgeous-Alexander plays on a bad team, it’s not hard to imagine him averaging 40 points per game, and it’s almost less hard to imagine him scoring 80 points in a single game.

The MVP can really score whatever he wants. He has a reliable 3-point shot and is one of the best middies in the league. He probably scores better at the rim than any other guard, and he gets to the free throw line more often. If anyone is going to score 80 points again, or potentially even try to surpass Adebayo’s historic performance, it will surely be Gilgeous-Alexander.

当迈阿密热火队走进卡塞亚中心参加周二晚上对阵华盛顿奇才队的比赛时，他们几乎不知道巴姆·阿德巴约会让这一晚成为一个没人会忘记的夜晚。虽然如今对阵奇才队的比赛感觉像是一场自然而然的胜利，甚至会被遗忘，但阿德巴约确保这将永远存储在每个人的记忆库中，因为他在热火队 150-129 获胜的比赛中爆发了历史性的 83 分。

阿德巴约的投篮命中率为 20-43（三分命中率为 7-22），罚球线命中率为 36-43，即使在他被双人包夹或三人包夹的情况下，奇才队也无法阻止他得分。热火队的其他球员希望阿德巴约追平纪录，而他也确实做到了。

虽然阿德巴约知道他的名字将会被载入史册，但他 归功于每个人 热火队以及更高的存在帮助他创造了历史。

“伙计，我希望我能重温两次。我感谢上帝、我的家人、我的队友。这群人。他们一直在给我喂球，”阿德巴约告诉 FanDuel 体育网络的凯利·萨科。

热火队全体球员帮助巴姆·阿德巴约创造历史

在第四节尤其明显的是，热火队只想着一件事：让阿德巴约拿到篮球。尽管他被双人或三人包夹，他们还是强行给他喂石头。他们故意对奇才队犯规。他们为他设置无球掩护，甚至让他在后场控球。

热火队主教练埃里克·斯波尔斯特拉也为阿德巴约创造了历史性的得分之夜。一些教练会把他从比赛中剔除，让比赛远离对手，但阿德巴约仍然留在比赛中，球迷们花了很多钱才看到了结果。

While many are celebrating Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo’s 83-point game, some are disappointed, like Ice Cube’s son O’Shea Jackson Jr., who is upset that he beat out Kobe Bryant’s famous 81-point game.

Jackson He continued to post throughout the game, beginning with, “Kobe’s hate campaign is insane.”

He then called out the Heat and Adebayo for stat-padding. Jackson was not happy with the fact that the Heat allowed Adebayo to score in a big win over the Washington Wizards.

“Did they never have a lead? And then you give them the record for most free throws in a game. You’re intentionally committing fouls to manipulate the clock. And the refs are still giving the call!” Jackson wrote. “Shout out to whoever found that in the fantasy.”[,] But it was a collective effort by the league to get the Wilts record tonight and they missed. Adam Silver you are a wild MF.”

Fortunately, Adebayo could not break Wilt Chamberlain’s record-setting 100-point game. Jackson claimed that the NBA “tried too hard to break Wilt’s record” with Adebayo’s play. However, this did not happen.

Jackson claimed, “He showed us that he just has to choose on a given night.” “I have full hope [Victor Wembanyama] Finally doing it now. [Stephen A. Smith,] You better not disappoint me when you talk about this. Thank you very much [LeBron James] Don’t know how, but it’s you[ur] Mistake.”

Ultimately, Jackson’s perspective about the NBA “has really changed.” He’s upset, and now can’t even believe the Cleveland Cavaliers’ 3-1 comeback win against the Golden State Warriors in the 2016 NBA Finals.

Jackson concluded by saying that Kobe Bryant fans “would have loved and respected someone who took Kobe’s record because it would have been the closest they would have come to seeing Kobe.”

However, the NBA “created it and forced it to happen.” Jackson believes this was done in an attempt to “desecrate” the Bryant statue.

His love for Bryant is unwavering. Jackson said that Bryant “is still the best of any guard or perimeter player.” He just wishes the NBA wouldn’t make it clear that “a bunch of refs can decide whether you’re getting everything that’s called for you.”

可能没有多少人今天醒来时会想，“这一定是迈阿密热火队中锋巴姆·阿德巴约拿下 83 分的那一天。”

在一个随机的周二，阿德巴约在卡塞亚中心以 150-129 击败华盛顿奇才队的比赛中拿下 83 分，创造了 NBA 历史上第二高得分的比赛。他超过了科比·布莱恩特的81分，仅落后于威尔特·张伯伦的100分。

第四节还剩1分37秒时，阿德巴约通过罚球追平了科比的纪录。

在外面的某个地方，科比已经做好了反击阿德巴约的准备。

阿德巴约追平并打破了科比的罚球纪录是再合适不过的了，因为这位五届冠军的罚球得分也达到了 81 分。

阿德巴约43投20中，罚球43投36中。他还得到9个篮板、3次助攻、2次抢断和2次盖帽。

阿德巴约并不是真正出名的高得分手，因此他打破了科比曾经看似不可逾越的壮举，这令人非常惊讶。这位三届全明星球员在最后一节还剩七分钟时就已经得到了 70 分，随着热火队的每一次控球，场内的兴奋气氛也随之高涨。

并不是每天都有机会超越绝对的传奇人物，所以阿德巴约就去争取了——这是理所当然的。因为科比会第一个告诉他，他永远不应该放弃做伟大事情的机会。

对于迈阿密热火队，尤其是巴姆·阿德巴约来说，这是一个具有历史意义的夜晚。对阵华盛顿奇才队，他拿下83分， 超越后期 科比·布莱恩特 NBA 比赛中得分第二高的球员。

这一刻立即在所有人中疯传 NBA 中有谁在庆祝。勒布朗·詹姆斯和德克·诺维茨基就是其中之一。另外，阿德巴约的未婚妻，拉斯维加斯王牌队的阿贾·威尔逊， 就在场边 庆祝这一壮举。

赛后，阿德巴约 花了时间庆祝 与热火队主教练埃里克·斯波尔斯特拉 (Erik Spoelstra) 合影，据《SM 亮点》报道。当阿德巴约离开球场时，斯波尔斯特拉张开双臂等待他，并给了他一个大大的拥抱。

在打破科比纪录之前，阿德巴约 超越勒布朗·詹姆斯创下的61分纪录，热火队球员在一场比赛中得分最高。最终，热火队以150-129击败弱旅华盛顿奇才队。

总的来说，阿德巴约43投20中，三分线22投7中，罚球线43投36中。

此外，阿德巴约场均贡献18.9分。 2006年1月22日，科比·布莱恩特在洛杉矶湖人队与多伦多猛龙队的比赛中拿下81分。他46投28中，三分线13投7中，罚球线20投18中。

NBA 比赛中得分最高的是 1962 年 3 月的威尔特·张伯伦 (Wilt Chamberlain)。那天，在宾夕法尼亚州的赫尔希，张伯伦和他的费城勇士队正在对阵纽约尼克斯队。

张伯伦总共63投36中，罚球32投28中。勇士队以169-147获胜。

这一刻至今仍是 NBA 个人卓越表现的标杆。

从 2017-18 NBA 赛季开始，阿德巴约已经在热火队效力了九个赛季。

沒有人想到巴姆·阿德巴約會成為 NBA 歷史單場得分榜上超越科比·布萊恩特的人。現在，這位邁阿密熱火球星並不是世界上最糟糕的得分手。但對於先前曾拿下生涯新高41分的人來說，得到83分聽起來像是世界最高得分。

但沒有人給阿德巴約這份備忘錄。從球隊最終以 150-129 擊敗華盛頓巫師隊的比賽一開始，他的得分心情就很好，僅第一節就得到了 31 分，而且他從未停止過得分——字面上的意思。從第一分鐘到第48分鐘，阿德巴約對巫師的防守有話要說。

他全場43投20中拿下83分，罰球線43投36中。他現在擁有 NBA 歷史上第二高的比賽得分，超過了科比，科比在 2006 年對陣多倫多猛龍隊時得到了標誌性的 81 分。

沒有人可以質疑阿德巴約的努力，儘管比賽最後演變成一場毫不掩飾地追逐歷史性進球的比賽。再說一次：這個人之前在 NBA 的職業生涯最高得分是 41 分，而他一夜之間將這一得分翻了一番。

這是阿德巴約永遠不會忘記的一個夜晚，唯一的恥辱就是這項努力不得不結束。

熱火球星巴姆·阿德巴約無法阻擋

阿德巴約整晚都面臨包夾，甚至一度在後場遭到三人包夾。但奇才隊整晚都對他太管用了，他一次又一次走上罰球線——為他歷史性的得分之夜加油。

比賽結束時，這位熱火球星已經全身被砍，值得稱讚的是他43次罰球命中率接近84%。

巴姆·阿德巴约在迈阿密热火队以 150-129 战胜华盛顿奇才队的比赛中，以历史性的 83 分吸引了整个体育界的关注。他现在拥有 NBA 历史上第二高的单场得分，超过了科比·布莱恩特在 2006 年获得的 81 分，仅次于威尔特·张伯伦的 100 分。

出席阿德巴约历史性夜晚的还有他的另一半、拉斯维加斯王牌球星阿贾·威尔逊和他的母亲玛丽莲·布朗特。赛后，阿德巴约与女友分享了一个浪漫的时刻，女友在 Threads 上对搭档的疯狂进球做出了实时反应。

“韦尔普将不再拥有职业生涯的最高纪录，但至少它给了我一些可以追求的东西，”威尔逊写道。

威尔逊的职业生涯最高得分是 53 分，这是她在 2023 年对阵亚特兰大梦想队时创下的。到第三节，阿德巴约的得分就超过了她。

“三季度 60！？！！！？！？！是的，”威尔逊补充道。

阿德巴约在第三节结束时拿下 62 分，打破了热火队的队史得分纪录，超越了勒布朗·詹姆斯保持的 61 分。

“新纪录！！！”威尔逊进一步说道。 “历史！！！”

赛后，威尔逊拿她搭档的成就开玩笑，说NBA现在会来找他，测试他是否服用了增强表现的药物。

“来吧，在那个杯子里撒尿吧，我的孩子！✨，”威尔逊开玩笑地写道。

热火队的巴姆·阿德巴约甚至让他的女朋友惊呆了

世界上没有人比威尔逊更了解阿德巴约的硬木技巧，他过去肯定已经近距离观看了这位热火球星一千次。因此，她对这位热火球星的成就如此震惊已经说明了很多。

她的惊讶不应该令人惊讶。毕竟，阿德巴约之前的职业生涯最高得分是41分，尽管他是一名伟大的球员，但得分并不是他最大的优势。

When the Miami Heat stepped into the Kasia Center for Tuesday night’s showdown against the Washington Wizards, little did they know that Bam Adebayo would make it a night no one would ever forget. While the game against the Wizards seems like an automatic win these days, if forgettable, Adebayo made sure it will be stored forever in everyone’s memory bank as he exploded for a historic 83 points in the Heat’s 150-129 victory.

Adebayo shot 20-43 from the field (7-22 from deep) and 36-43 from the free-throw line, as the Wizards couldn’t stop him from scoring points even when double- or triple-teamed. The rest of the Heat team wanted Adebayo to chase this record and he did just that.

While Adebayo knows it is his name that will be in the record books, he gave credit to all To help make history, both on the Heat squad as well as on a higher note.

“Man, I wish I could have experienced it twice. I credit God, my family, my teammates. This crowd. They kept feeding me the ball,” Adebayo told Kelly Sacco of FanDuel Sports Network.

The entire Heat roster helped Bam Adebayo make history

It was especially clear in the fourth quarter that the Heat team had only one thing on its mind: getting Adebayo the basketball. They were force-feeding him rocks, even if he was double- or triple-teamed. They were deliberately annoying the wizards. They were setting screens to block the ball for him, and they were also letting him handle the ball out of the backcourt.

Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra should also be credited for making Adebayo’s historic scoring night possible. Some coaches would remove him from the game and the game would be out of reach for the opponents, but Adebayo remained in the game and the fans got what they paid good money to see.

Many people probably didn’t wake up today thinking, “This is the day Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo scores 83 points.”

On a random Tuesday, Adebayo recorded the second-highest scoring game in NBA history after dropping 83 points in a 150-129 win over the Washington Wizards at Kassite Center. He surpassed Kobe Bryant’s 81 points and is only behind Wilt Chamberlain’s 100 points.

Adebayo tied Bryant’s record with a free throw with 1:37 remaining in the fourth quarter.

Somewhere, Bryant is already preparing to get back at Adebayo.

It was fitting that Adebayo took over and broke Bryant’s record from the line as the five-time champion also tallied 81 points from the stripe.

Adebayo shot 20 of 43 from the field and 36 of 43 from the line. He also had nine rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks.

Adebayo isn’t exactly known as a high-volume scorer, so it was quite surprising that it was him who broke Bryant’s once-seemingly impossible feat. The three-time All-Star already had 70 points with seven minutes still left in the final period, and the excitement inside the venue grew with every Heat possession.

It’s not every day you get the chance to surpass an absolute legend, so Adebayo took it – and rightfully so. Because Bryant would be the first person to tell him that he should never miss an opportunity to do something great.

It was a historic night for the Miami Heat and especially Bam Adebayo. He scored 83 points against the Washington Wizards. moving forward late Kobe Bryant For scoring the second most points in an NBA game.

It was a moment that still remains the standard for NBA individual excellence.

巴姆·阿德巴约在得分方面可能不会脱颖而出，但他成为世界上最好的篮球联盟的超级巨星是有原因的。这位迈阿密热火队球星以83分震惊了世界，成为NBA历史上第二高得分的拥有者，带领球队以150-129战胜了倒霉的华盛顿奇才队。

虽然奇才队并没有代表最强悍的对手，尤其是当他们希望在赛季末输掉比赛以获得更好的乐透赔率时，但这一成就不应被削弱。毕竟NBA历史上只有三名球员突破80分大关，而阿德巴约 说清楚了 以及他赛后的表现。

“你谈论他们如何不防守，但归根结底他们是一支NBA球队，”阿德巴约告诉体育中心的斯科特·范佩尔特。

SVP：“奇才队的防守不是他们的强项……”

确实，奇才队并不是一支非常出色的球队。但他们拥有有能力的防守者，并且拥有进入 NBA 的球员。但由于某种未知的原因，华盛顿无法停止对这位热火球星的犯规，这让他即使在比赛接近尾声面对双人甚至三人的情况下也能得分。

热火球星巴姆·阿德巴约的成就不容抹杀

如果阿德巴约的 83 分之夜是对阵战绩更好的球队，是否会更有意义呢？并不真地。阿德巴约仍然需要穿过篮筐才能得到 83 分，奇才队让他努力投篮，尤其是在下半场。

奇才队无法停止攻击他是阿德巴约的错吗？他所做的一切都是他的工作。他投进了这些进球。他制作了那些水桶。他的名字将永远留在 NBA 的纪录册上。

Bam Adebayo may not be far behind when it comes to scoring, but there’s a reason he’s a superstar in the world’s best basketball league. The Miami Heat star stunned the world after scoring 83 points, becoming the owner of the second-highest scoring game in NBA history, leading the team to a 150-129 win over the hapless Washington Wizards.

Although the Wizards did not represent the toughest opponents, especially as they were looking to lose games late in the season to earn better lottery odds, this accomplishment should not be underestimated. After all, only three players in NBA history have surpassed the 80-point mark, and Adebayo made it clear The way he carried himself after the game.

“You talk about how they don’t play defense but at the end of the day they’re an NBA team,” Adebayo told SportsCenter’s Scott Van Pelt.

SVP: “The Wizards’ defense is not their strength…”

Seriously, the Wizards aren’t a very good team. But they have capable defenders and players who are in the NBA for a reason. But for some unknown reason, the Washington Heat couldn’t stop the star from committing fouls, allowing him to score points when facing double or even triple teams late in the game.

The accomplishments of Heat star Bam Adebayo cannot be overstated.

Would Adebayo’s 83-point night mean more if he came against a team with a better record? Not necessary. Adebayo still had to go through hoops to score 83 points and the Wizards made him work for his buckets, especially during the second half.

Is it Adebayo’s fault the Wizards couldn’t stop him from hacking? What he was doing was his job. He made these field goals. He made those buckets. And it is his name that will forever remain in the NBA record books.

NBA icon Kobe Bryant might be shaking his head proudly in heaven right now after Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo scored 83 points against the Washington Wizards on Tuesday.

Adebayo surpassed Bryant’s 81 points for the second-highest scoring output in league history, and trailed only NBA legend Wilt Chamberlain’s 100 points. The Heat edged the Wizards, 150–129.

In the post-game conference, Adebayo looked on in disbelief at what he had accomplished, especially since he beat his childhood hero’s record. He said She is curious If Bryant were alive today, what would he say about his 83-point accomplishment?

“For me, it’s a wonder what he would say. Seeing someone (score) 60, 70, but 83 and passing him, I’m like, ‘What would he say to me?’ Because I always wanted to talk to him. But he’d probably tell me, ‘Do it again,'” Adebayo shared, who was seated next to his girlfriend, Las Vegas Access center A’ja Wilson.

“It’s a surreal moment to be in the company of someone I idolized growing up.”

“Wondering what he (Bryant) would say… I’ve always wanted to have a conversation with him, but he’d probably tell me ‘Do it again.'”

Wilson agreed with Adebayo’s comment that Bryant would have urged him to go for the record again. Many thought Bryant’s 81 points would never be broken, but Adebayo did. So why not 100 points for Chamberlain?

Bryant was a frantic competitor and for him there was no record he could not achieve. Other athletes also shared his mentality and were very proud of it.

While Adebayo will never know how Bryant would react to his 81-point performance, he can take solace in the fact that he remained consistent with the mindset of his childhood idol.

巴姆·阿德巴约不仅是 NBA 圈子里的焦点，也是体育界的焦点，因为他创造了一项将他的名字永远铭刻在纪录册上的壮举。周二晚上，迈阿密热火队以 150-129 战胜华盛顿奇才队，阿德巴约拿下令人瞠目结舌的 83 分，成为 NBA 得分第二高的球员（超越科​​比·布莱恩特）。

阿德巴约开局表现理想，第一节结束时他已经得到31分。半场结束时他已经得到了 45 分，从那时起，他和热火队开始梦想创造历史——他们在对阵倒霉的奇才队的比赛中实现了这一目标。

这位热火球星的脸上只有微笑，自从他获得NBA历史第二高得分以来，他的嘴里就只有感激之情。他继续感谢当权者，在他的历史性努力之后，他发布了一条三个字的信息，感谢更高的存在。

“上帝是伟大的🙏🏾，”阿德巴约在他的 X 官方账户（以前的 Twitter）上写道。

热火球星巴姆·阿德巴约成为关注焦点

即使那些不太关注 NBA 的人也知道阿德巴约的 83 分表现。这就是他的得分之夜的历史意义。想象一下，在你余下的职业生涯中，你会被以与威尔特·张伯伦和科比·布莱恩特同样的方式被提及。这就是这位热火球星在击败奇才队后的处境。

这绝对是一项让数百万人在余下的时间里记住你的名字的壮举。阿德巴约现在在体育界是不朽的，就像他不太可能成为 NBA 80 分俱乐部的球员一样，而该俱乐部只有三名成员。

Bam Adebayo is the center of attention not only in NBA circles but also in the sports world after he recorded a feat that will forever engrave his name in the record books. On Tuesday night, Adebayo scored a eye-popping 83 points in the Miami Heat’s 150-129 win over the Washington Wizards and became the owner of the second-highest scoring game in the NBA (surpassing Kobe Bryant).

Adebayo started the game in an ideal way, as he already had 31 points by the end of the first quarter. He had 45 points at halftime, and that’s when he and the Heat started dreaming of making history – which they accomplished against the hapless Wizards.

The Heat star had nothing but a smile on his face and nothing but gratitude after scoring the second-highest scoring game in NBA history. And he remained grateful to the powers that be, as he posted a three-word message thanking a higher being after his historic effort.

“God is great 🙏🏾,” Adebayo wrote on his official account on X (formerly Twitter).

Heat star Bam Adebayo becomes center of attention

Even people who don’t follow the NBA religiously know about Adebayo’s 83-point effort. What a historic scoring night he had. Imagine being referred to in the same manner as Wilt Chamberlain and Kobe Bryant for the rest of your career. The Heat Star stands here after the destruction of the Wizards.

This is no less than an achievement by which millions of people will remember your name for the rest of time. It’s unlikely that Adebayo is now immortalized in the sports world because he was the player to crack the 80-point club in the NBA, which only has three members.
