Adebayo is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Hawks due to lower back soreness.
The Heat are playing the first leg of their back-to-back set Friday, so the team may sideline Adebayo for one of those games while the veteran center recovers from a back injury. Kel'el Ware would step into a more prominent role on offense, while Simone Fontecchio and Jaime Jaquez would be the top candidates to enter Miami's starting lineup if Adebayo were to miss time.
