During the heat of the moment, Adebayo wanted to quickly get the ball from him as it was delaying the game. As a result, he angrily grabbed the ball from security's hands. The reason behind his reaction was probably due to the security guard's seemingly unwillingness to hand over the ball.

Fans on social media expressed their thoughts on Bam Adebayo's reactions. Here's what some had to say on X, formerly Twitter:

Heat overwhelms Hornets despite Bam Adebayo's lackluster performance

The Miami Heat took on the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday night. Miami came up with a dominant 122-105 victory over Charlotte thanks to Andrew Wiggins' 42-point performance. It was an underwhelming performance by Bam Adebayo, who was named the Heat's captain since Jimmy Butler's departure.

Adebayo didn't provide much on the court, only adding 11 points, four rebounds, two assists, and two steals. It's not the usual numbers he'd put up on a regular given how he averages 17.5 points, 9.7 rebounds, 4.3 assists, and 1.3 steals per game this season.

Fortunately for Bam Adebayo and the Miami Heat, Andrew Wiggins came through with a stellar scoring performance. Providing efficient support to Wiggins was Tyler Herro. The first time All-Star had a solid performance on Saturday. Herro added 29 points, six rebounds, three assists, and three steals. Tyler and Andrew's efforts were enough to put a stop to LaMelo Ball and the Charlotte Hornets.
