Nick Young throws shade at Bam Adebayo\u2019s historic 83-point game<\/a> appeared first on ClutchPoints<\/a>. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bam Adebayo had a historic night after scoring 83 points<\/a> in the Miami Heat<\/a>\u2019s game against the Washington Wizards on Tuesday, March 10. Adebayo now holds the second-most points scored in a single game in NBA history, replacing the late Kobe Bryant\u2019s 81-point game. The Miami guard is now sitting behind Walt Chamberlain\u2019s 100-point game in 1962.<\/p>\n

While this was a historic night for the NBA, many fans and players had their own opinions, including former Denver Nuggets star\u00a0Nick Young. The former Nuggets shooting guard, who retired after the 2018-2019 NBA season, shared many obscenities towards Adebayo and the Wizards, as well as adding that \u201cBam\u2026he nice, but he not 83 nice.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHey man, f\u2013k Bam. F\u2013k Bam and the Wizards. F\u2013k all that s\u2013t,\u201d he said on his appearance on Gil\u2019s Arena. \u201cAll that records are supposed to be broken? Hell nah. Did you see that?\u201d<\/p>\n

Young also targeted the Wizards\u2019 defense before mentioning Kobe\u2019s record being beaten.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Wizards! See, I be talking about the Wizards,\u201d he said. \u201cY\u2019all always support the Wizards. F\u2013king G-League team. French n**** getting dunked on the whole time and s\u2013t. Playing no defense.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBam\u2026he nice, but he not 83 nice, like c\u2019mon, man,\u201d Young continued. \u201cKobe probably rolling over in his grave right now, like, \u2018You? You?!\u2019 Fuck that! Do you see how he was going for it at 74? That was nasty!\u201d<\/p>\n

While Young was not impressed by Adebayo, many other NBA stars showed their support <\/a>for his historic night.<\/p>\n

\u201cBAM BAM BAM,\u201d Los Angeles Lakers icon LeBron James wrote<\/a> on X,adding an explosive and fire emojis.<\/p>\n

Adebayo was emotional after the game and in disbelief as now his name is amongst other NBA legends.<\/p>\n

\u201cWilt, me, then Kobe,\u201d Adebayo said following the game. \u201cIt sounds crazy.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, it was just remaining calm, remaining locked in and understanding that I can go for something special,\u201d Adebayo said. \u201cI didn\u2019t think it was going to be 83. But to have this moment is surreal, because like I said, man, to be able to do it at home, in front of my mom, in front of my people, in front of the home fans, this is a mark in history that will forever be remembered.\u201d<\/p>\n
