Miami Heat guard Jimmy Butler took exception to a reporter’s question following the team’s win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night.

Butler was asked what he would say to critics who say Miami is a team with just one star. Butler passed on praise to Bam Adebayo while scoffing at the question.

“This is a team of one star?” Butler said, according to The Athletic. “Who’s our star, Bam? I’ll take it. I’ll take Bam as our star any day. I ain’t worried about what anybody says. We’re content with who we are.”

Adebayo is in his third season with the Heat and has come into his own since being made a full-fledged starter. Adebayo is averaging 34.1 minutes per game, averaging 15.5 points, 10.6 rebounds and 4.6 assists. He’s been a nice compliment to Butler, who the Heat signed in the offseason.
