Bam Adebayo opened up about Miami Heat’s postseason elimination

Bam Adebayo and the Miami Heat were eliminated from the 2022 postseason in heartbreaking fashion. The Heat were trailing the Boston Celtics 98-96 with under 20 seconds left in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference. Unfortunately, Jimmy Butler missed a wide-open transition 3-pointer that would have given them a late lead.

Adebayo explained how he dealt with the tough loss:

Although the Heat’s 2022 campaign ended in heartbreak, the team’s expected to be back in the title conversation this time around. Despite dealing with injuries to key players, the Heat nearly made it to the NBA Finals in 2022. With improved health, look for the Heat to have a real shot at coming of the East.

The Heat kick off their 2022-23 season against the Chicago Bulls on October 19.
