NEW YORK (AP) — Bam Adebayo had MiamiĢƵ first 20-rebound triple-double in team history. Until he didn’t.

The NBA, which reviews every stat from every game and often makes changes during and even after contests, took away one of the rebounds Adebayo was credited with in MiamiĢƵ 108-107 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday night.

That means AdebayoĢƵ final line was 22 points, 19 rebounds and 10 assists. Still a triple-double, the sixth of his regular-season career and seventh when including playoff games — just not one of the 20-rebound variety.

The only other player in Heat history to grab 19 rebounds as part of a triple-double was Lamar Odom, who had 30 points, 19 rebounds and 11 assists in MiamiĢƵ 102-96 win over Sacramento on March 6, 2004.
