This wasn’t the first time Kerr compared Adebayo to Draymond. In an earlier interview, Kerr also made the same comparison while further elaborating why the 23-year old Heat center is similar to the three-time Warriors All-Star.

Per the Miami Herald: 

“The similarity is the playmaking,” Kerr said. “It’s rare to have a combination of a playmaking big and a guy that can defend the paint. Bam has had a fantastic season, and Miami is playing quite a bit like we have played over the last five years. And Bam is at the center of that offense like Draymond has been. It’s a good comparison.”
