Steven Adams one of my favorite role players. Bro goes in, doesn’t complain, does his job, and is a great teammate. Not everyone has to be a scorer! Love it

[@twuandixon8675]

I swear hes almost too humble like PURELY does his job but bet he could score well if he chose too.

[@thejoke2791]

Yup. I wished more coaches allowed him to score

[@omgvague]

He could be a #1 for some teams or #2 for most teams if that's what he wanted. He's skilled offensively and has a surprising amount of hops when he actually gets up. He's stated before though that he just wants to play team ball and not hero ball.

[@izzy031096]

Best rebounder this season. And best offensive rebounder by a landslide. Was cut short unfortunately…

[@winter9242]

​@@omgvague come on now let's not overrate his skills as a player if he was really that skilled offensively he wouldn't be played off the floor during the 2020 playoffs despite the small lineup of the rockets

As a New Zealander, it's heartwarming to hear that Steven Adams is such a great teammate and makes the people around him feel so good. He's a down to earth human being. He was at a small provincial airport here at home not so long ago. He had lunch, then took his rubbish to the bin, went and thanked the staff for the feed. Lovely guy.

I loooooove Steven Adams. I remember when OKC drafted him I was so confused, but then I saw how tough he was and even as a rookie he wouldn't back down from anyone! He's such an unique player and character and I've always heard nothing but great things about him as a person. I remember his opinion on playing in the bubble and being unbothered because it could be so much worse.

JRE tend to not have many athletes on outside of MMA or boxing but Adams favourite things outside of basketball are literally hunting, fishing and MMA so I think he would actually be a great guest, he is also good friends with Israel Adesanya as well so having them both on at the same time would be a great pod!

Never did I think Steven Adams would turn out to be as important as he is in today’s NBA the toughest man in the NBA in my opinion is Jimmy Butler, and he’s on the record saying, Steven Adams sets some of the hardest screens he’s ever had to run through bt for a guy who’s never been an All Star which is a little surprising by the way u could make the argument tht he’s one of the most important players on your roster and makes your team better I’ve been following his career since his Pitt days and he’s better now then he’s ever been I just wanna see him stay healthy cause he’s key to a lot and a slight difference between winning and losing without having to do much
