QUOTABLE

Heat center Bam Adebayo during his big game Saturday against the Washington Wizards in Mexico City: “My teammates helped me from the start,” Adebayo said. “We’re pros, man. Once we see the ball go in several times, it becomes like an ocean.

“And then you get into a flow and you’re just locked in, it’s like the ball is going to go in every time for you.”
