Miami's Bam Adebayo (knee) ruled out on Thursday
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (knee) will not play in Thursday's contest against the New Orleans Pelicans.
What It Means:
Adebayo will not be available after Miami's center recently experienced left knee tendinitis. Expect Precious Achiuwa to play more minutes at the five in a favorable matchup against a New Orleans' unit ranked 25th in FanDuel points allowed per game this season.
According to Rotogrinders' Court IQ in 391.9 minutes this season with Miami's projected inactives, Achiuwa is averaging 0.95 FanDuel points per minute and a 18.6% usage rate.
