Bam Adebayo on Victor Oladipo's growth: "His impact defensively is unreal," Heat center Bam Adebayo said. "He's being one of those guys that does the dirty work ... On the offensive end, he's getting back in the floor. It reminds me of when he was the the All-Star Victor. He's just being a star in his role on our team."
