More on this storyline
Rachel Nichols on Jimmy Butler: ‘Instead, not only has it been such a problem for management. I’ve talked to guys in that locker room, and to say they have had it is an understatement because he has disrespected them so much. The way he’s been in and out, ‘oh last minute, not playing’, the way he’s been acting towards in their locker room, I mean staff and other people like that, and then the stunt with them making them wait for hours on the tarmac even to show up? I haven’t spoken with Bam Adebayo about this so I am speculating, I want to make this clear, but if you’re Bam Adebayo, who is of this level of a player that he is, and some guy on your team who isn't even contributing right now makes you wait for hours on the tarmac, how do you feel about that?’ -via YouTube / February 1, 2025
But Adebayo said Wednesday that he has not talked to Fox about any trade possibilities. Also, it has been reported that the San Antonio Spurs are Fox’s preferred trade destination. But Vincent Goodwill of Yahoo Sports said Wednesday night that the Heat and Houston Rockets are also on Fox’s list as second-tier options behind the Spurs. -via Miami Herald / January 30, 2025
That’s because Adebayo and Fox developed a close friendship as roommates during their lone college season at Kentucky in 2016-17. They’re so close that Adebayo was a groomsman in Fox’s wedding in 2022. “That’s my man,” Adebayo said this week when asked about his friendship with Fox, with the Heat coming off Wednesday night’s 126-106 blowout home loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers to fall back to .500 at 23-23 for the season. “That’s my college roommate. Our relationship, for me, I think is very solid. I was in his wedding, I was a groomsman. That just shows the level of respect. That just shows the level of respect and obviously the bond that we have.” -via Miami Herald / January 30, 2025
