Adebayo said to be lobbying Heat execs for a Gabe Vincent reunion

ClutchPoints' Brett Siegel reports Miami could target free agent guard Gabe Vincent for its final open roster spot, likely on a minimum deal.

Vincent played for the Heat from 2019 to 2023, helping lead them to the 2023 Finals, before leaving for the Lakers and later splitting last season between Los Angeles and Atlanta; he remains unsigned.

Both Siegel and insider Michael Siegel say Bam Adebayo has been lobbying the front office for a reunion, with Brett Siegel adding that coach Erik Spoelstra has pushed for Vincent since Summer League and that Seth Curry is another option Miami could consider.
