Injury Details

Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reported that Adebayo sustained the injury just eight minutes into the game. He appeared to be in significant pain and had to be taken off the court.

“Bam Adebayo not on the court for the start of the second half. Kel'el Ware starting in Adebayo's place.”

Fan Reactions

“Obviously Bam going down was unexpected but still competing vs the #1 offense and a top 5 defense is still so much to build off of. Last year’s team would’ve lost by 35. There shouldn’t ever be a rebound disparity of 20 rebounds that deflating and gives the other team more attempts.”
“Was always gonna be tough with Bam. Made impossible once he didn’t come back in. Proud of the effort the group showed.. hopefully Nikola Jokic can give Niko some advice while he’s there. Hopefully Bam’s injury isn’t too bad, but the fact there wasn’t an update concerns me.”

Player Performance Before Injury

Prior to the injury, Adebayo was averaging 22.4 points, 9.1 rebounds, and 3.3 assists on 46% shooting.
