Heat’s Bam Adebayo adds another game-winning moment to resume: ‘I’m just really happy for Bam’

Bam Adebayo is on track to leave his mark on the Miami Heat’s record book.

At Adebayo’s current pace, he and Hall of Famer Dwyane Wade could end up No. 1 and No. 2 as the Heat’s all-time career leaders in categories like two-point field goals made, free throws made, assists, steals and points, among others.

Adebayo is also on track to overtake Udonis Haslem as the Heat’s all-time rebounder within the next five seasons. But Adebayo tied another franchise record when he capped off one of his best performances off the season by hitting a walk-off game-winner, lifting the Heat to a dramatic 105-103 victory over the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday night at Frost Bank Center to begin a four-game trip.

On a side out-of-bounds play drawn up by Heat coach Erik Spoelstra with 3.2 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Adebayo caught the inbounds pass from Nikola Jovic and quickly dribbled into a 19-foot midrange jumper that went in right as the final buzzer sounded.

That shot broke a 103-103 tie and won the game for the Heat, as teammates mobbed Adebayo on the court in celebration. “Great shot,” Adebayo, a three-time NBA All-Star, said after clinching the win for the Heat (24-23). “Buzzer beater. Let’s go home.”
