Charlotte forward Gordon Hayward said on Thursday that Bam Adebayo’s recent 83-point performance “makes it feel not legit,” calling the Miami center’s outburst “bad for the NBA.”
Hayward’s remarks came after Adebayo erupted for 83 points in a single game, a feat that stunned fans around the league. While the outpouring of offense drew widespread attention, Hayward questioned whether such a scoring explosion is good for professional basketball. “It makes it feel not legit,” he said.
Details about the exact circumstances of Adebayo’s record-setting game were not immediately available, and league officials have not issued a response to Hayward’s criticism.
