Bam Adebayo is shooting threes like a pro.
In Team USA’s game against South Sudan, Adebayo made all six of his shots in the first half, including two three-pointers. He ended the game with 18 points, seven rebounds, a steal, and two blocks. Surprisingly, Curry was helping him get open for shots and passing to him for jumpers.
Adebayo’s sudden three-point skills started showing last month when he made 14 out of 28 from beyond the arc. This is impressive considering he had only made 23 three-pointers in his entire career before this.
A New Dimension for Miami
Adding a reliable three-point shot could elevate Adebayoโs game even more. Miami lost Caleb Martin to the 76ers this summer , so Adebayo might fill that gap with his new shooting skills. But donโt worry, he still loves dunking hard!

Fans are probably thrilled about this unexpected twist.
No one thought Adebayo would be matching Kevin Durantโs three-point numbers against South Sudan. Except maybe Adebayo himself.
What do you think about Bam’s new skill?
