Adams did most of his best work in the first quarter, scoring nine points and seizing six boards to help his side put their noses in front at the first break.
The starting centre played 22 minutes and shot five-of-eight from the floor, while back-up Enes Kanter also enjoyed a double-double of 12 points and 13 rebounds.
