Mandatory Credit: Reggie Hildred-Imagn Images  \" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/nba\/miami-heat\/\">Miami Heat<\/a>\u00a0star\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/nba\/player\/bam-adebayo\">Bam Adebayo<\/a>\u00a0made an appearance at Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final, giving the Florida Panthers crowd an early boost. Wearing a custom Panthers jersey with his name and number 13, Adebayo served as the team\u2019s guest drummer and energized the packed arena before puck drop.<\/p>\n<p>The moment was captured in a short clip shared by the Florida Panthers on social media. Adebayo walked out onto the platform, pounded the drum, and received a loud ovation from the home crowd. The Miami Heat followed up with their own post, writing, \u201cLet\u2019s gooooo! #TimeToHunt\u201d in support of the Panthers\u2019 playoff run.<\/p>\n<p>The Heat forward\u2019s support for another South Florida franchise highlights the connection between the teams and their fan bases. Adebayo\u2019s presence helped kick off an important night for the Panthers, who hosted the Edmonton Oilers for a pivotal game in the series.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\">\n<div class=\"m-in-content-ad not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\" data-zone-count=\"3\">\n<div data-google-query-id=\"CMa0nP6l640DFerIFgUdlwkCBQ\" data-ad-size=\"fixedBottomD\">\n<p>The event added a local crossover element to the evening. Adebayo\u2019s role as guest drummer is typically reserved for local celebrities and figures tied to the sports community. His participation brought extra attention from basketball fans, many of whom are already tuned in to the Stanley Cup Final.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-2\">\n<div class=\"m-in-content-ad not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-2\" data-zone-count=\"3\">\n<div data-google-query-id=\"CIb0yIWm640DFWHxTAIdchobcw\" data-ad-size=\"300x250\">\n<p>This was not Adebayo\u2019s first time backing a fellow Miami team, but the timing of the appearance stood out. The Panthers are pushing for a title of their own, and having one of the Heat\u2019s most recognized players show support was a boost to the atmosphere.<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-detail--body\">\n<p>\u201cAdebayo fires up Panthers crowd ahead of Stanley Cup Final\u201d is how\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MiamiHEAT\/status\/1932237400933376040\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the moment<\/a>\u00a0is being remembered.
