The Bottom Line
When playing against the Miami Heat, the question that always comes to mind is how do we stop Bam Adebayo. Bam is a player who started in the NBA All-Star game this season. Sure, Philadelphia 76ers Center Joel Embiid didn’t play due to injury. Bam starting in the All-Star game is proof that he is one of the best players in the Eastern Conference. The Wizards have had a problem defending talented bigs all season as they simply lack the front court presence in their depth chart. This may get ugly early for the Wizards. They have to be aggressive defensively and on the boards. They also have to limit the transition and fastbreak points from the Heat. Jordan Poole and Kyle Kuzma must lay their imprint on this game and set the tone offensively for the Wizards. They have to control the tempo in this game. Rather the Wizards want to compete in this game or compete for the number one overall pick in this year’s draft, this game is sure to be a challenge for the Washington Wizards.
