Adams mentioned on the Men in Blazers podcast that he typically marks the team's tallest players, using tactics like grappling and holding on to try and gain an advantage.

However, Adams found Woltemade to be different from the typical opponents he faces.

Woltemade was described as a "very nice guy" who didn't engage in trash talk, making Adams feel uncomfortable due to his kindness.

Adams also shared a personal anecdote about his childhood dreams of becoming a professional basketball player, but ultimately deciding it wasn't a feasible goal due to his height.

Despite the initial discomfort, Adams' defensive strategy ultimately helped Bournemouth secure a nil-nil draw.
