Bam Adebayo added another milestone to his Miami Heat career, becoming just the second player in franchise history to score 10,000 points with the team.

Known most for his tenacious defense, Adebayo’s scoring achievement puts him in rare company: he joins Dwyane Wade as the only two Heat players to reach the 10,000-point threshold in a Miami uniform.

Rare company in Miami history

Wade, the face of the franchise for much of the past two decades, previously stood alone in the club. Adebayo’s entry underscores the breadth of his contributions beyond his defensive reputation, highlighting his sustained offensive production over his time with the Heat.

The accomplishment adds to Adebayo’s growing résumé in Miami, where he has been a central figure on both ends of the floor. Reaching 10,000 points with one team is a significant marker of longevity and consistency, and Adebayo now shares that distinction with Wade in Heat history.
