In Spoelstra’s eyes, Adebayo generated that good karma by finding other ways to make an impact even during his early-season shooting slump. While his points and shooting efficiency is down so far, he’s averaging a career-high three offensive rebounds, two steals and 1.3 blocks per game this season.

Adebayo needs to save some for the remainder of the Miami Heat's schedule.Adebayo broke out of his scoring slump with 30 points Friday night to go along with 11 rebounds and seven assists. The Heat defeated the Indiana Pacers 124-111 Friday night at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

The Miami Heat head to Indiana eyeing an opportunity to bounce back. Having lost three of their last four, the Heat are only 1.5 games out of third place in the East, where only all but three teams sit under .500 entering Friday. Miami can also heighten its chase for the Emirate NBA Cup.
