“I want people to know who I am what I represent, and what I come from.” 2x NBA All Star an 4X All Defense Bam Adebayo’s early life in this trailer in rural North Carolina gave him edge he needed and helped make him into the superstar he is today. With the support of loving mother and a drive to be great Bam never forgot where he came from and is dominating the NBA as one of the top all around players in the game. Now he’s devoted to using his story to inspire the next generation. The Heat continue to make Finals appearances led by Bam and we can’t wait to see him get his first ring.

I feel him I'm 60yrs now, I never knew We were poor. We didn't live in the projects, but we did live in the hood. But when we walked in our house it was beautiful, I could write a book on my great mom. I get him and single mom deserve their Whoot Whoot. ❤

She definitely is an amazing lady. Super cool and worked hard.

@terrencejackson9290 9 месяцев назад

Being poor is a state of mind. If you have a loving family structure that provides for you and molds you then you’re rich in culture and love. There are those who are born with a “silver spoon “ but wish for a strong family structure

"I didnt really know i was poor." Thats authentic. He was satisfied with his life. He was poor materially but rich emotionally 💯

His mom is the real MVP! SAw a press conference interview he answered the phone even in the middle of them asking him questions! That really just goes to show the amount of love he has for his mother!!!

@MackMittenzTV 8 месяцев назад

Damn, I didnt know Bam was from NC. I also grew up in a mobile home in the country in NC. I had hoop dreams but god had other plans for me. I ended up joining the Army and serving over 8 years with two deployments. Now I travel the world and day trade stocks. I will never forget where I come from! That just fuels me to go harder in life!...SALUTE to Bam!

One of the most humble guys in the league. And a certified killer on the court!

I dont know about Killer yet. He's working on that. But he will get there.

@kccoleman7339 9 месяцев назад

⁠@@Catch_XXIIthis is a testament to what Bam was saying about people not valuing the defensive side of the ball enough. He is absolutely a killer on the defensive side of the ball.

@@kccoleman7339 okay I give you that. Honestly best defender in the league in my opinion. I thought " Killer" was a reference to his offensive approach.

Thank you. You’re right. We all somehow become the worst example of one they’ve ever seen in their heads for some reason. It’s weird to me. I’m like so who’s raising all these Black men you hear talk about how much they love their moms if we’re all trash? 🤔
