Bam Adebayo

C, Miami Heat

ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting that Bam Adebayo (neck/shoulder) will miss Friday's Game 2 but the Heat are hopeful that he'll be able to play in Game 3 on Sunday.

Adebayo suffered a left shoulder injury in Game 1 and was diagnosed with a neck strain after the game. It's a huge loss for the Heat, who already struggled to stop Anthony Davis even with Bam's defense. Miami has Kelly Olynyk, Meyers Leonard, Udonis Haslem and Chris Silva left in their PF/C group, so we'd expect to see a lot of Olynyk and Leonard (who has fallen out of the rotation in the bubble) given the roles that UD and Silva have played this season.
